GENERAL CALL ADDRESS

SUPPORT

The addressing procedure for the I2C bus is such that

the

first

byte

after

the

Start

condition

usually

determines which device will be the slave addressed by

the master. The exception is the general call address

which can address all devices. When this address is

used, all devices should, in theory, respond with an

Acknowledge.

The general call address is one of eight addresses

reserved for specific purposes by the I2C protocol. It

consists of all ‘0’s with R/W = 0.

The general call address is recognized when the

GCEN bit of the SSPCON2 is set. Following a Start bit

detect, 8 bits are shifted into the SSPSR and the

address is compared against the SSPADD. It is also

compared to the general call address and fixed in hard-

ware.

If the general call address matches, the SSPSR is

transferred to the SSPBUF, the BF flag bit is set (eighth

bit) and on the falling edge of the ninth bit (ACK bit), the

SSPIF interrupt flag bit is set.

When the interrupt is serviced, the source for the

interrupt can be checked by reading the contents of the

SSPBUF. The value can be used to determine if the

address was device specific or a general call address.

In 10-bit mode, the SSPADD is required to be updated

for the second half of the address to match and the UA

bit of the SSPSTAT register is set. If the general call

address is sampled when the GCEN bit is set, while the

slave is configured in 10-bit Address mode, then the

second half of the address is not necessary, the UA bit

will not be set and the slave will begin receiving data

after the Acknowledge (Figure 17-15).
