I2C Controller IP Core
The I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) Controller IP Core is a two-wire, bi-directional serial bus that provides simple and efficient method of data transmission over a short distance between many devices. Avalon compliant I²C Controller provides an interface between Nios II processor and I²C device. It can work as Master/Slave transmitter or Master/Slave receiver depending on working mode determined by Nios II processor. The I²C Controller IP core incorporates all features required by the latest I²C specification including clock synchronization, arbitration, multi-master systems and Fast-speed transmission mode.
It is provided as Altera SOPC Builder ready component and integrates easily into any SOPC Builder generated system.

Features
- Compatible with Philips I²C(PCF 8584) standard
- Supports both Master and Slave mode
- Automatic detection and adoption to bus interface type
- Multi-master operation
- Byte-by-byte data-transfer is driven by Interrupt or Bit-polling
- Arbitration-lost interrupt with automatic transfer cancellation
- Start/Stop/Repeated Start/Acknowledge generation
- Start/Stop/Repeated Start detection
- Bus-Busy detection
- Supports 7 bit addressing mode
- Operates from wide range of input clock frequencies
- Static synchronous design
- Avalon Bus compliant
- Verification
- The SLS I²C Controller IP Core's functionality is verified in ModelSim simulation software using test bench written in verilog HDL.
- The I²C Controller's functionality (as a Master) is tested by interfacing with RTC (Real Time Clock) and I²C EPROM on SLS UP3 Education Kit.
- The I²C Controller's functionality (as a Slave) is tested by communicating with another instance of the same core working as master and also with the SLS I²C Master IP Core on the UP3 Education Kit.
