Could not send I2C data - Axi IIC

Support
1

Hello. Im working on a custom board (Zybo-Z710 Pynq 2.5) but im not being able to use Axi IIC to read data from a sensor.
Im able to use other overlays but when i try to use I2C i only get “Could not send I2C data”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
RuntimeError                              Traceback (most recent call last)
<ipython-input-8-f53c43e925b8> in <module>()
----> 1 I2c.send(0xAD, buf, 1, option=0)

/usr/local/lib/python3.6/dist-packages/pynq/lib/iic.py in send(self, address, data, length, option)
    102             self._virtaddr, address, data, length, option)
    103         if sent == 0:
--> 104             raise RuntimeError("Could not send I2C data")
    105         return sent
    106 

RuntimeError: Could not send I2C data

This is my code. Ive tested also with tx_buf=_ffi.new("unsigned char [32]")

overlay = Overlay('iic.bit')
overlay.download()
I2c=lib.AxiIIC(overlay.ip_dict["axi_iic_0"])
buf = bytes(1)
I2c.send(0x53, buf, 1, option=0)

My block design:

##Pmod Header JC
set_property -dict { PACKAGE_PIN V15   IOSTANDARD LVCMOS33     } [get_ports { i2c_sda_io }]; #IO_L10P_T1_34 Sch=jc_p[1]
set_property -dict { PACKAGE_PIN W15   IOSTANDARD LVCMOS33     } [get_ports { i2c_scl_io }]; #IO_L10N_T1_34 Sch=jc_n[1]
set_property PULLUP true [get_ports i2c_sda_io]
set_property PULLUP true [get_ports i2c_scl_io]

Pins are correctly connected but also tryied inverting sda/scl.

In linux i get:

xilinx@pynq:~$ sudo i2cdetect -l
[sudo] password for xilinx:

And my device tree:

i2c@e0004000 {
        compatible = "cdns,i2c-r1p10";
        status = "okay";
        clocks = <0x1 0x26>;
        interrupts = <0x0 0x19 0x4>;
        reg = <0xe0004000 0x1000>;
        #address-cells = <0x1>;
        #size-cells = <0x0>;
        clock-frequency = <100000>;
        phandle = <0xe>;
};

If im connected with putty also i get this on the log "cdns-i2c e0005000.i2c: timeout waiting on completion"

Any ideas? Dont know what else to check/test. Thanks

Hi rockstiff,

  • Configure the Zynq PS, open the PS for customization select interrupts and enable the PL to PS interrupts.
  • Add in a AXI interrupt controller from the IP library.
  • Add in a concat block. To this block connect the interrupts from the AXI IIC.
  • Then output of the concat block to the input of the AXI Interrupt controller. The interrupt output of the AXI Interrupt controller is then connected to the PS interrupt input.

You could refer to the project from

Good luck.
