Product Description & Specifications

The Variable Clock Rate I2C Bus Host Adapter is a special version of our iPort Windows to I2C Bus host adapter. Capable of mastering the I2C at 451 Hz to 57 KHz clock speeds, this host adapter is compatible with IC simulators and emulators that must operate the bus at low speeds. The Variable Clock adapter is also capable of communicating with early versions of ICs that may not be capable of operating at full bus speeds.

PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

* I2C Bus IC Verification and Test Tool.
* Masters the Bus at User Selectable 451 Hz to 57 KHz Clock Rates.
* Connects to your Windows-based PC's RS-232 Serial Port.
* Supports Bus Master and Slave, Transmit and Receive.
* Includes our iPort Message Manager and Message Center Windows Applications.
* Compatible with 3v to 5v Systems.
* Build your own custom I2C applications with our I2C Software Development Kit.

Addressing the needs of chip developers to verify and test new IC designs that incorporate I2C interfaces, the Variable Clock Rate I2C Bus host adapter operates over a broad range of user specified clock speeds. Included with the Variable Clock I2C Bus host adapter are special versions of the MCC’s Message Manager and Message Center for Windows applications that enable a user to master the bus at various clock speeds. Master, Slave, Transmit, Receive. Variable Clock I2C Bus host adapter supports all I2C message modes including Multi-Master, Arbitration Detection, Repeated Starts, and messages from 1 to 64K bytes in length.

If you need to create you own custom I2C applications, our I2C Software Development Kit for Windows provides the tools needed to turn your PC into a active I2C node. This package includes our Dynamic Linked Library with documentation and source code examples in Visual C and Delphi. This kit works with Variable Clock I2C Bus host adapter to make developing I2C applications quick and easy.
