SII EEPROM Interface (I²C)
III-44 Slave Controller – ET1200 Hardware Description
8 SII EEPROM Interface (I²C)
For details about the ESC SII EEPROM Interface refer to Section I. The SII EEPROM Interface is
intended to be a point-to-point interface between ET1200 and I²C EEPROM. If other I²C masters are
required to access the I²C bus, the ET1200 must be held in reset state (e.g. for in-circuit-programming
of the EEPROM), otherwise access collisions will be detected by the ET1200.
8.1 Signals
The EEPROM interface of the ET1200 has the following signals:
EtherCAT
device
EEPROM_DATA
EEPROM_CLK
EEPROM_SIZE
Figure 22: I²C EEPROM signals
Table 46: I²C EEPROM signals
EEPROM size configuration
The pull-up resistors for EEPROM_CLK and EEPROM_DATA are integrated into the ET1200.
EEPROM_CLK must not be held low externally, because the ET1200 will detect this as an error.
