How To Monitor I2C Communications Through RS232
by Electro-Tech-Online member languer In the past when requiring to monitor I2C communications between two devices I would use a logic analyzer. Such monitoring was useful to determine if the I2C communications between devices was properly configured. Even though this is quite useful and efficient, it does require a logic analyzer, with an I2C protocol […]
