I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) Bus Controller Reference Design for Serial EEPROMs

I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) Bus controller provides an interface between standard Microprocessors and I2C Serial EEPROM devices. It is intended to be a simple controller providing random reads cycles only. SDRAM modules implement a Serial EPROM that supports the I2C protocol. Typically, serial EPROMS are programmed at board assembly time and store configuration information, which is read by a Microprocessor during power-up. This design assumes the reader has experience with I2C controllers. This design conforms to the Philips I2C Bus Specification version 1.0
