I2C MUX 6 Click is a compact add-on board representing a bidirectional selector dedicated to I2C slave address conflicts applications. This board features the PCA9518, an expandable five-channel bidirectional buffer controlled by the I2C-bus from Texas Instruments. The PCA9518 overcomes the restriction of maximum bus capacitance by separating and buffering the I2C data (SDA) and clock (SCL) lines into multiple groups of 400pF I2C channels. It provides activation of the desired channel via a given Enable pin and permits extension of the I2C-bus, through an onboard expansion header, by buffering both the data (SDA) and the clock (SCL) lines enabling virtually an unlimited number of buses of 400pF.

Click library

  • Author : Stefan Filipovic
  • Date : Apr 2022.
  • Type : I2C type

Software Support

We provide a library for the I2C MUX 6 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

This library contains API for I2C MUX 6 Click driver.

Standard key functions :

  • i2cmux6_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

    void i2cmux6_cfg_setup ( i2cmux6_cfg_t *cfg );
  • i2cmux6_init Initialization function.

    err_t i2cmux6_init ( i2cmux6_t *ctx, i2cmux6_cfg_t *cfg );
  • i2cmux6_default_cfg Click Default Configuration function.

    err_t i2cmux6_default_cfg ( i2cmux6_t *ctx );

Example key functions :

  • i2cmux6_set_channel This function sets the desired channel active and configures its slave address.

    err_t i2cmux6_set_channel ( i2cmux6_t *ctx, uint8_t ch_sel, uint8_t ch_slave_addr );
  • i2cmux6_generic_write This function writes a desired number of data bytes starting from the selected register by using I2C serial interface.

    err_t i2cmux6_generic_write ( i2cmux6_t *ctx, uint8_t reg, uint8_t *tx_buf, uint8_t tx_len );
  • i2cmux6_generic_read This function reads a desired number of data bytes starting from the selected register by using I2C serial interface.

    err_t i2cmux6_generic_read ( i2cmux6_t *ctx, uint8_t reg, uint8_t *rx_buf, uint8_t rx_len );

Example Description

This example demonstrates the use of I2C MUX 6 Click board by reading the device ID of a 6DOF IMU 11 and Compass 3 Click boards connected to the channels 1 and 4 respectfully.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

Initializes the driver and logger.


void application_init ( void )
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;  /**< Logger config object. */
    i2cmux6_cfg_t i2cmux6_cfg;  /**< Click config object. */

    /** 
     * Logger initialization.
     * Default baud rate: 115200
     * Default log level: LOG_LEVEL_DEBUG
     * @note If USB_UART_RX and USB_UART_TX 
     * are defined as HAL_PIN_NC, you will 
     * need to define them manually for log to work. 
     * See @b LOG_MAP_USB_UART macro definition for detailed explanation.
     */
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );

    // Click initialization.
    i2cmux6_cfg_setup( &i2cmux6_cfg );
    I2CMUX6_MAP_MIKROBUS( i2cmux6_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    if ( I2C_MASTER_ERROR == i2cmux6_init( &i2cmux6, &i2cmux6_cfg ) ) 
    {
        log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
        for ( ; ; );
    }

    log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}

Application Task

Reads the device ID of the connected Click boards. Channel 1 : 6DOF IMU 11 Click [slave address: 0x0E; reg: 0x00; id: 0x2D], Channel 4 : Compass 3 Click [slave address: 0x30; reg: 0x2F; id: 0x0C]. All data is being logged on the USB UART where you can check the device ID.

void application_task ( void )
{
    uint8_t device_id;
    if ( I2CMUX6_OK == i2cmux6_set_channel ( &i2cmux6, DEVICE0_POSITION, DEVICE0_SLAVE_ADDRESS ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, "\r\n Active Channel: - " );
        for ( uint8_t cnt = 0; cnt < 4; cnt++ )
        {
            if ( ( DEVICE0_POSITION ) & ( 1 << cnt ) )
            {
                log_printf( &logger, "%u - ", ( uint16_t ) ( cnt + 1 ) );
            }
        }
        if ( I2CMUX6_OK == i2cmux6_generic_read ( &i2cmux6, DEVICE0_REG_ID, &device_id, 1 ) )
        {
            log_printf( &logger, "\r\n %s - Device ID: 0x%.2X\r\n", ( char * ) DEVICE0_NAME, ( uint16_t ) device_id );
        }
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    }
    if ( I2CMUX6_OK == i2cmux6_set_channel ( &i2cmux6, DEVICE1_POSITION, DEVICE1_SLAVE_ADDRESS ) )
    {
        log_printf( &logger, "\r\n Active Channel: - " );
        for ( uint8_t cnt = 0; cnt < 4; cnt++ )
        {
            if ( ( DEVICE1_POSITION ) & ( 1 << cnt ) )
            {
                log_printf( &logger, "%u - ", ( uint16_t ) ( cnt + 1 ) );
            }
        }
        if ( I2CMUX6_OK == i2cmux6_generic_read ( &i2cmux6, DEVICE1_REG_ID, &device_id, 1 ) )
        {
            log_printf( &logger, "\r\n %s - Device ID: 0x%.2X\r\n", ( char * ) DEVICE1_NAME, ( uint16_t ) device_id );
        }
        Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    }
}

Note

Make sure to provide 3v3 power supply on VCC-I2C pin.

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.I2CMUX6

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
