# I2C DEMO
|
|
## Introduction
|
|
This is a basic demonstration of reading/writing I2C protocol.
|
|
For this demo, we connect a I2C device to pins:
|
|
- 3V3 (3V3, pin 9) = VCC
|
|
- GND (GND, pin 18) = GND
|
|
- SCL (C0, pin 15) = SCL
|
|
- SDA (C1, pin 16) = SDA
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Installation Directions
|
|
This project is intended to be overlayed on top of an existing firmware repo.
|
|
- Clone, Build & Deploy an existing flipper zero firmware repo. See this [tutorial](/firmware/updating/README.md) for updating firmware.
|
|
- Copy the "i2c_demo" [folder](..) to the \applications\plugins\i2c_demo folder in your firmware.
|
|
- Build & deploy the firmware. See this [tutorial](/firmware/updating/README.md) for updating firmware.
|
|
- NOTE: You can also extract the i2c_demo.FAP from resources.tar file and use qFlipper to copy the file to the SD Card/apps/Gpio folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Running the updated firmware
|
|
These directions assume you are starting at the flipper desktop. If not, please press the back button until you are at the desktop.
|
|
|
|
- Press the OK button on the flipper to pull up the main menu.
|
|
- Choose "Applications" from the menu.
|
|
- Choose "GPIO" from the sub-menu.
|
|
- Choose "I2C Demo"
|
|
|
|
- The flipper should say "I2C NOT FOUND" if no I2C devices are connected.
|
|
|
|
- NOTE: If your I2C device already has pull-up resistors, then you do not need to add them to your SCL and SDA lines.
|
|
|
|
- Connect an I2C device (like a BH1750) to pins 9 (3V3), 15 (SCL), 16 (SDA), 18 (GND).
|
|
- The message should change to "FOUND I2C DEVICE"
|
|
- The next line should have the address of the I2C device.
|
|
- If the device is a BH1750 then you should also see "WRITE/READ SUCCESS" and a value that changes with the brightness on the sensor.
|
|
|
|
- Press the BACK button to exit.
|
|
|

## How it works
|
|
- application.fam
|
|
- specifies the name of our application.
|
|
- specifies the entry point for our application.
|
|
- specifies we use the GUI.
|
|
- specifies our icon is the i2c_demo.png file.
|
|
- specifies our application can be found in the "GPIO" category.
|
|
|
|
- i2c_demo.png
|
|
- The icon for our application that shows up in the "GPIO" folder.
|
|
|
|
- i2c_demo_app.c
|
|
- This is the demo application that uses I2C. |
