Chapter 13 Inter-Integrated Circuit (S08IICV2)

13.1 Introduction

The inter-integrated circuit (IIC) provides a method of communication between a number of devices. The
interface is designed to operate up to 100 kbps with maximum bus loading and timing. The device is
capable of operating at higher baud rates, up to a maximum of bus clock/20, with reduced bus loading. The
maximum communication length and the number of devices that can be connected are limited by a
maximum bus capacitance of 400 pF.
All MCF51QE128 Series MCUs feature the one or two IICs, as shown in Figure 13-1.
NOTE
The SDA and SCL should not be driven above VDD. These pins are psuedo
open-drain containing a protection diode to VDD.

13.1.1 Module Configuration

The IIC1 module pins, SDA and SCL, can be repositioned under software control using SOPT2[IIC1PS]
as shown in Table 13-1. This bit selects which general-purpose I/O ports are associated with IIC1
operation.

13.1.2 Interrupt Vectors

For MCF51QE128 Series MCUs with two IICs, both IICs share a single interrupt vector. When interrupts
are enabled for both IICs, the IICF bit must be polled in the IIC1S and IIC2S registers to determine which
IIC caused the interrupt. See Chapter 8, “Interrupt Controller (CF1_INTC),” for the IIC interrupt vector
assignment.
