I2C/SPI Activity Board – TP240310
Known-good I2C and SPI devices for testing and learning
The I2C/SPI Activity Board carries a set of known-good I2C and SPI slave devices. When a design does not respond, connect your adapter to the board instead: if the board works, the fault is in the target hardware, not in your software.
It is also a simple way to learn the two buses. Pass-through pins let a bus monitor watch the traffic, and two Aardvark adapters can be linked through the board.
Highlights
- NXP PCA9554AD I2C port expander driving LEDs
- Atmel AT24C02 I2C EEPROM (2 Kbit)
- Atmel AT25080A SPI EEPROM (8 Kbit, SPI modes 0 and 3)
- Pass-through pins for a protocol analyzer
Example Code
- Examples in C, Visual Basic and Python, plus Aardvark XML batch scripts
- Shipped in the Aardvark, Cheetah and Promira software API packages
