Hi All - I'm fairly new to vhdl and I need to add an avalon memory mapped master to an I2C slave block. I've looked through a few pages but nothing really explains it. It looks like it's not that bad but I'm not really that good yet on writing the state machines.My code is pasted below:

Code:

USE ieee.std_logic_1164.all;
USE ieee.std_logic_arith.all;
USE ieee.std_logic_unsigned.all;
USE ieee.std_logic_arith.all;
--use work.bud_lite_pkg.all;

    	addr_reg        	: OUT std_logic_VECTOR(7 downto 0);
    	wr_rd   		: OUT std_logic;
    	scl			: IN  std_logic;
    	sda			: INOUT std_logic;
    	dout 			: OUT std_logic_vector(7 downto 0)			  -- data received over i2c data byte (write data from uP)

END i2c_rcvr;

You should specify the problem you are facing. Please simulate your code using a test-bench and then verify if it is delivering the functionality it should. I am sure I2C slave Verilog/VHDL models are freely available which you can connect to your I2C master and then verify data exchange.

first - there is already an i2c slave free from altera you can use.
i used it in the past and it worked perfectly.

if you want to do your own i2c slave you will need to use template

you can get all the information how to do it from altera.

aruipksni - can you point me to the altera i2c slave that you used? I didn't find anything on their site.

Thanks for your suggestion.
 

You have design issues. I'm not going to go into much detail or specifying all the issues as I don't have time to examine the code that closely.

Minor stuff:
You have extra signals in your sensitivity list.
You're using the non-standard synopsys packages _unsigned and _arith (twice)

Architectural flaw:
You are generating clocks using flip-flops, that is okay in ASICs (where there's clock tree insertion), but not recommended in FPGAs.

Big fat no-no:
You've got asynchronous signals going into your FSM, that is used to make decisions on what is done to multiple signals, this can cause to outputs that are supposed to switch at the same time switch state with a 1 clock cycle skew between them.

Recommendation:
Use a single clock for the entire design, sample all the inputs with demet registers and run the design with an enable that is at the bit rate of the i2c.

Thanks for the detailed response ads-see. I'll go back and try to incorporate your suggestions.

you can go to :

**broken link removed**


and d/l the ip.

Just for my knowledge...
The above seems like an OpenCores IP which Altera has endorsed (correct me if I am wrong).

From your post in #3, I was thinking about the I2C slave being an ALtera Proprietary IP (like we have Xilinx IPs generated from Coregen).

deer dpaul
you are 100% correct about this. this is adopted open ip core.

and i just checked my old files, and i found that i
was using my PIO/i2c code, so i wasn't using this
ip core, as i thought before (it's been a long time since i use it).

Touché !
 

If this is the same I2C core that was on opencores by some Richard guy, that core did have a bug that we found in some specific test cases (which I no longer recall). I'm not sure if the recent update addresses the issue we found or not (as I don't recall what the issue was in the first place!)
