I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
Re: I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
Well even with the latest patch I2C still doesn't work with PN532 boards. e.g ones like this

It doesn't work at all or has glitches? Does that device work with any other Arduino-type device you have?mvrhov wrote:Well even with the latest patch I2C still doesn't work with PN532 boards. e.g ones like this

It can find it on the BUS (if you do a scan), send and receive a few bytes then gets stuck.
Yes, the board works on Arduion uno.
I've added a lot of debug printf's into the code and it fails at various times. If it fails one then next time you try it will fail earlier. You have to do full reset and then it will fail at the same place as the first time.

I don't have one of these boards (yet)... it'd take a few days to get one here.
Is it specifically the HiLetgo one you linked to?
Version 3 or something earlier?
What GPIO pins are you wiring to what pins on the board?
Where's your code?
Are you using the latest Arduino-ESP32 as well as latest Arduino?
Edit: The exact device in the link you gave matches the layout of what Elechouse (and evidently HiLetgo) sell.
http://www.elechouse.com/elechouse/inde ... ts_id=2242
Now what's interesting is Elechouse has the following note about copies of their product:
http://www.elechouse.com/elechouse/imag ... t_copy.pdf
In addition, the manual for the v3 module talking about level shifters - that specifically mentions the I2C references 5V:
http://www.elechouse.com/elechouse/imag ... ual_V3.pdf
But the schematic suggests it's 3.3V referenced:
http://www.elechouse.com/elechouse/imag ... rowing.pdf
So my question for you is, what kind of Arduino are you using, and are you level shifting with that or with the ESP32? Or does your particular device require it at all? If it works with a 5V Arduino with no extra hardware or level shifting, perhaps the 3.3V ESP32 doesn't work as well with it... or the design is different than the one above.
Or it's an I2C problem - knowing what pins you used and what kind of code you ran will help, since unless someone has the same device you it's hard to debug this.

Re: I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
It's the board listed there. It's connected to the 2.54pin header where only i2c + power is exposed. the switch is set to i2c!
I did a fresh git update. before trying a few days ago. And the patch mentioned above is present.
Tried it again with todays 31.3 commit ba1efb9897
This is the code.
One type of output. I added a lot of debug messages to the original library.
The 2nd one if you do reset.
The library is from here with line 17 commented out.

Re: I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
I've got no idea why this would be failing, but as I'm curious about the tech in general anyway I ordered what appears to be the same one from Amazon. I'll have it on Monday and can delve into it then.
Re: I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
I've also tried it with a borrowed arduino Due and it also works.
Re: I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
A little update from my side:
I added an oled display and an arduino to my I2C setup to generate some traffic.
While testing some changes to make things faster I ran into issues with unreliable communication.
Errors will pop up several times a day, causing my reboot logic to trigger.
I just undid the last change I posted (faster i2c_set_cmd) and will see how the reliability of the slow version is.
I also ran across a bug that causes i2c transmissions to fail when there's more than 32 bytes in the Wire library's txBuffer.
Will try to tackle this when I'm done with reliability testing...
Cheers
Hans

Re: I2C SCL frequency 10% less than it should be at 400kHz
That Seeed-Studio repo you're based on is rather ancient... I just tried the Adafruit PN532 library (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit-PN532) and with a few small modifications examples/iso14443a_uid worked fine on both Particle and ESP32.mvrhov wrote:I've also tried it with a borrowed arduino Due and it also works.
The few simple steps:
Add a define check for "ESP32" in Adafruit_PN532.cpp:
#include <Wire.h>
#if defined(__AVR__) || defined(__i386__) || defined(ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD) || defined(ESP8266) || defined(ESP32) || defined(ARDUINO_ARCH_STM32)
#define WIRE Wire
...
Use the default I2C pins
IO21 = SDA, IO22 = SCL
In the example sketch:
Specify an IRQ pin (and hook up the IRQ line from the board). I used IO16. I specified IO17 because better safe value than sorry, even though I didn't wire that pin to anything):
#define PN532_IRQ (16)
#define PN532_RESET (17) // Not connected by default on the NFC Shield
Comment out the SPI initializer around line 46 and uncomment the I2C one which looks like this:
Adafruit_PN532 nfc(PN532_IRQ, PN532_RESET);
Finally, I changed the halt loop slightly (doesn't matter except for OTA flashed boards like the Particle):
while (1) {delay(1000);} // halt
That's it... this board was remarkably painless to hook up versus everything else I've been working on lately.

Please update to the latest Arduino-ESP32 - a lot of changes went in today... this may improve things for you. Let us know how it goes!Hans Dorn wrote:I added an oled display and an arduino to my I2C setup to generate some traffic.
