Thanks for your help..
 

max6953 con pic program

Hi,
Some problems noticed are:

1. A stop condition should not be given before a Repeat Start.

2. A repeat Start is similar to normal start so that the Slave address with R/Wr bit to be given after a Repeat Start even for communicating with the same slave.

3. What is the purpose of 'data1' in 'write_6953(data1)' ?

Regards,
Laktronics

Hi,
Regarding configuration of 6953, I also have to read from the catalogue only, which I hope you can do it better.

By the way after repeat start, you have to give divice address A0 also everytime. You can as well remove repeat start and write the registers sequentially from 01 to 04. In this case, since auto increment of register address is there, after writing data into reg.01, you can continue to write data serially into registers without giving register address. So, your configbit() function totally will have only one start and stop for writing the complete function. No repeat start is also required.

After reading the catalogue, come out with a simple test plan and write your program accordingly.

Also check if the tris bits for I2C pins of 877 need to be set as input before configuring them as i2c. Some PIC devices need it to be done so.

Regards,
Laktronics
