Build Status

USIWire

Arduino Wire compatible library, supporting I²C, I2C, IIC and/or (Two Wire Interface) TWI for Atmel ATTiny microprocessors utilizing the Universal Serial Interface (USI). This library proviedes Master and Slave functionality.

Installation

This library can easily be installed via Arduino Library Manager.

Usage and Support

Please have a look to the original Arduino Wire Library. Just include the library in your sketch:

#include <USIWire.h>

This library is tested to compile against:

  • ATTiny24/ATTiny44/ATTiny84
  • ATTiny25/ATTiny45/ATTiny85
  • ATTiny261/ATTiny461/ATTiny861
  • ATTiny87/ATTiny167
  • ATTiny2313/ATTiny4313
  • ATTiny1634

ATTiny support for Arduino is provided by ATTiny Core.

Features

  • Provide I2C/TWI for ATTiny platforms with USI support.
  • Support for slave and master mode.
  • Full callback support in slave mode including proper stop condition detection in the interrupt routine.
  • Low usage of dynamic memory. Only 46 bytes including buffer.
  • Use of one common 32 byte buffer for master and slave.
  • Compatibility to Arduino Wire Library 1.0 and later.
  • Start from scratch with ATMEL "AVR312 USI as I2C slave" and "AVR310 USI as I2C master" examples. All changes were done via version control.
  • Support the Arduino Library Manager for installation.
  • Test suites for master and slave mode that run with USIWire and Arduino Wire to validate, e.g., System Management Bus (SMBus) communication, proper detection of start and stop condition detection, wake up from sleep modes.

Differences to Arduino Wire Library

To reduce the memory footprint of this library, a common buffer of 32 byte for slave and master mode is used. This require some care in the sketches:

  • Remove of inheritance of Stream (saves 20 bytes of dynamic memory). Thought, all important write() functions are supported.
  • One common buffer for slave and master mode: This do not allow, to operate simultaneously in master and slave mode. Thought, switching between master and slave mode is possible with end() and begin().
  • Only one buffer for rx and tx operations in master mode: read() can not be used in between of beginTransmission() and endTransmission().
  • In slave mode, the common buffer is split into rx and tx buffer.
  • After calling the onReceive callback, the slave rx buffer is cleared.
