For many years I've been irritated by the relatively large amount of code needed to talk to I2C EEPROMS, especially on c5x parts where stack depth is limited. I swore one day I'd try to do some highly optimised code. I finally got around to it, and 30-odd sheets of paper later, below is the result
It's primarily targetted at c5x applications, and was designed with the following criteria & limitations in mind (based on several real applicati ons) :
The following limitation of the current code is considered acceptable for the applications targeted : The number of bytes to read/write, and the RAM address to read/write are likely to be fixed at assemble time, so it doesn't matter if strange offsets etc. are required to these values, as this costs no code space, and can be handled easily with macros.
The code will read or write up to 14 bytes per call, although the write cache size of small eeproms will usually limit writes to 8 bytes or fewer. READ THE DATASHEET CAREFULLY to find the cache size for the device you are using, and be aware that this can vary between different manufacturers of the same part, and part revisions (e.g. Microchip 24LC01 vs. 24LC01B).
The current code body uses 68 words (including return). The code used to set-up addresses etc. is not counted as this will be different in different applications. Three words can be saved if 'fast mode' eeproms are used (e.g. 24LC01B at 5V). 4 registers are used,(plus FSR), one of which is for the eeprom address, which is preserved and can be eliminated if only one address will be used. No internal CALLs are used.
Explanatory notes - the following notes describe the more subtle aspects of the code - you don't need to understand them if you just want to use the code 'as is', but you will if you want to modify or optimise it further!
The code runs in two 'phases' - a write phase and a read phase, the latter only being used for read operations. Each phase begins with a start condition, followed by the control byte.
The variable 'cnt' holds two counts, one per nibble, stored as negative numbers, i.e. counting up to zero.
The flags byte is used as follows :
Using the same byte for flags and the bit count doesn't actually take any more code - the extra cycles to increment the count it by adding 20h are saved by not having to initialise the count - it's done when the flags are set up.
When SCL is set high, if SDA is tri-state (input or '1' output), the SDA output register bit may get set high (which would prevent SDA going low) by read-modify-write bit operations on SCL. This problem is avoided by clearing both SDA and SCL bits together with ANDWF. This will not cause SDA glitches, as the only time this clearing will change the SDA output register state is when SDA is tri-stated.
FSR is incremented on every byte - there's no point doing it conditionally as all that's needed to compensate is an assembly-time offset.
Note that in a few cases you will need to add a clrwdt somewhere inside the retry loop, depending on choice of eeprom, WDT prescale setting, and the delay between a write and any subsequent read or write attempt. The worst-case write time of a 24LC01B is 10mS, and the PIC's worst-case undivided watchdog period is 9mS.
Everyone's application is different, and so there is scope for further optimisation depending on particular requirements - here are a few suggestions :
If power consumption is an issue, you may want to add a delay to the retry loop to reduce the number of retries that will be attempted when the eeprom is busy writing.
A 10K pullup resistor is required from SDA to Vdd. No pullup is required on SCL as open-drain SCL drive is not required for eeprom applications.
Note that this code will not work as-is with the 12CE51x devices, and although it could be modified, it may not be especially optimal - the CE devices don't (all?) have a write cache, so the multi-byte write capability will not be useful in its current form.
