I2C Communication between PIC18F4550 and AS5600

[soren7]

Hello,
I am trying to communicate between PIC and AS5600 chip. I am not sure if the commands I send are correct. The only data I receive back from AS5600 is "6" for B0 and "6" for B1.

Here is part of my code:

define LOADER_USED 1
define OSC 24
DEFINE HSER_RCSTA 90h
DEFINE HSER_TXSTA 20h
DEFINE HSER_BAUD 38400
DEFINE HSER_CLROERR 1
Define LCD_DREG PORTD
Define LCD_DBIT 4
Define LCD_RSREG PORTD
Define LCD_RSBIT 1
Define LCD_EREG PORTD
Define LCD_EBIT 0
define LCD_BITS 4
define LCD_LINES 2
define CCP2_REG PORTC
define CCP2_BIT 1
ADCON1 = 15 'make all inputs and outputs digital


TRISA = %11111111 'set up port A as input
TRISC = %10000000 'set up port C as output/input (Rx-1,Tx-0)
TRISB = %11111111 'set up port B as input
TRISD = %00000000 'set up port D as output
TRISE = %00000000 'set up port E as output


PORTC = %01000100
DEFINE I2C_SCL PORTB,1
DEFINE I2C_SDA PORTB,0
DEFINE I2C_SLOW 1
DEFINE I2C_HOLD 1
DEFINE CHAR_PACING 102

start:
B0 = 0
B1 = 0
pause 100
i2cwrite PORTB.0,PORTB.1,$36,$0E,[0]
pause 10
i2cwrite PORTB.0,PORTB.1,$36,$0E,[1]
pause 10
I2CREAD PORTB.0,PORTB.1,$36,$0E,
pause 10
I2Cwrite PORTB.0,PORTB.1,$36,$0F,[0]
pause 10
I2Cwrite PORTB.0,PORTB.1,$36,$0F,[1]
pause 10
I2CREAD PORTB.0,PORTB.1,$36,$0F,[B1]
pause 10
LCDOut $FE, 1, dec B1
LCDOut $FE, $C0, dec B0
[B]goto start

Any help you can provide in this matter will be appreciated.

Well, from the datasheet I could not understand much about how to read data from the chip.

What are the $0F and $0E after $36 in your commands?

Also, are you sure you have connected correctly data and clock of the I2C bus from PIC to AS5600?

the data sheet address is a 7 bit address pbp uses 8 bit address
what are ic2writes for ?
they seem to be of no value that i can see
you defined sda and scl why not use them ?

more like

start:
I2CREAD SDA,SCL,$6C,$0E,[B0,B1]
LCDOut $FE, 1, dec B1
LCDOut $FE, $C0, dec B0
goto start

[soren7]

$36 is I2C address for AS5600
$0F and $0E address for low and high bytes from encoder.
I am pretty sure the data and clock are connected correctly. Also I pull them hight with 4.7k resistor.

[soren7]

what are ic2writes for ?
I thought that I need to send trigger first to AS5600 (Master mode), but I might be wrong.

Can I ask you why did you use $6C in read command? Shouldn't it be $36?

[richard]

$36 is I2C address for AS5600

the data sheet address $36 is a 7 bit address pbp uses an 8 bit address scheme

You may well have to "configure" the device but for an i2c read transaction that is an unnecessary step


$0F and $0E address for low and high bytes from encoder.
both registers can be read in a single transaction as i indicated

[soren7]

the data sheet address $36 is a 7 bit address pbp uses an 8 bit address scheme

Does it mean that I can not communicate or I need to adjust the address?

ok

ok


Thank you.

I have used this one:
I2CREAD SDA,SCL,$6C,$0E,[B0,B1]
and it works. Thank you very much for your help
