- the control unit 131 recognizes the start condition via the I / F unit 137 and determines whether the slave address transmitted from the master device 110 matches its own address. As a result, if they match, the control unit 131 transmits an ACK signal to the master device 110 via the I / F unit 137 in synchronization with the SCL clock signal (S13). After transmitting the ACK signal, the controller 131 prepares for receiving the next data, for example, while writing data in a reception buffer (not shown) to a memory such as a RAM.

In the case of reading, the value of the command content bit is “1”, and in the case of writing, the value of the command content bit is “0”. Further, the internal counter 132 b outputs an enable signal to the parameter setting unit 133 when the value of the register 132 c in the command holding unit 132 is updated.
- the parameter setting unit 133 refers to the command content bit held in the register 132c by the enable signal from the command holding unit 132. Then, the parameter setting unit 133 corresponds to the maximum time during which the SCL clock signal is maintained at the low level for determining the communication abnormality in accordance with the bit content referred to (here, “read” or “write”).
- the parameter value to be set is set in the abnormality detection unit 134 (S23).
- the parameter setting unit 133 detects the abnormality of the parameter value corresponding to the maximum time during which the SCL clock signal is kept at the low level when processing the read data. Part 134.

- the parameter setting unit 133 sets the parameter value corresponding to the maximum time during which the SCL clock signal is held at the low level when processing the write data to the abnormality detection unit. Set to 134. The value of this parameter is optimal at the time of writing.
- the anomaly detection unit 134 shown in FIG. 5 latches the state of the SCL clock signal with a dedicated clock having a frequency that is at least twice as high as that of the SCL clock signal, and sets the low level time. It counts with the internal counter 134a. Then, the comparison unit 134b determines whether or not the count value counted by the internal counter 134a exceeds the value of the parameter corresponding to the maximum time that the SCL clock signal is held at the low level set by the parameter setting unit 133. Is confirmed (S24). For example, in the read example shown in FIG. 6, the control unit 131 transmits an ACK signal (S4) via the I / F unit 137 and then forcibly sets the SCL clock signal to a low level. .
- control unit 131 forcibly transmits the ACK signal via the I / F unit 137 (S13, S15, S17), and then forcibly transmits the SCL clock signal. Set to low level.
- the comparison unit 134b proceeds to the process of step S25, and when the count value does not exceed the parameter value (S24: No). The process proceeds to step S26.
- step S25 the comparison unit 134b determines that there is a communication abnormality, and outputs a communication abnormality signal to the initialization unit 136.
- the initialization unit 136 outputs a reset signal that initializes the control unit 131 when the communication abnormality signal from the abnormality detection unit 134 is asserted.
- the master device 110 when a read command is transmitted from the master device 110, when the communication of the slave device 130 is initialized by the reset signal output from the initialization unit 136, the busy state is canceled and the SCL becomes valid. . In this case, since the control unit 131 of the slave device 130 is in the initial state, the process of transmitting read data to the SDA via the I / F unit 137 is not performed. Since the SDA is pulled up externally, the read data input to the master device 110 is “0xFF”. By deciding not to transmit / receive data that becomes “0xFF” in normal communication between the master device 110 and the slave device 130, the master device 110 continuously inputs read data that becomes “0xFF”.
- the slave device 130 recognizes that the communication has been initialized, generates a start condition again, outputs the slave address and the content of the command, and resumes communication with the slave device 130. It is assumed that the number of continuous inputs of read data that is “0xFF” recognized that communication is initialized in the slave device 130 is set in an internal register (not shown) included in the master device 110. Then, for example, the control unit 111 of the master device 110 compares the value of this internal register with the value of the counter that counts up the number of times of continuous input of read data that is “0xFF”, and the slave device 130 performs communication. It is determined whether or not it has been initialized.
- the control unit 131 is in the initial state. Even if write data is transmitted from the master device 110, an ACK signal cannot be returned. Therefore, when the ACK signal is not returned from the slave device 130 for a predetermined time, the master device 110 recognizes that the communication is initialized in the slave device 130, generates a start condition again, and generates a slave address and a command. And the communication with the slave device 130 is resumed.
- step S26 the control unit 131 continues the communication process with the master device 110.
- control part 131 confirms whether the stop condition which the master apparatus 110 produced
- the processing content in the slave device 130 differs depending on whether the command content is read or write, and the control unit 131 forcibly fixes the SCL clock signal to the low level accordingly.
- the time to do is also different.
- processing takes longer than in the case of writing.
- in order to prepare read data when communication time between the control unit 131 and the arithmetic processing unit 138 is required, when arithmetic processing in the arithmetic processing unit 138 is required, This is because there is a case where arithmetic processing in the control unit 131 is required.
- the time for the control unit 131 to maintain the SCL clock signal at the low level is longer than that in the case of writing. Therefore, if the parameter value for detecting an abnormality in reading and writing is the same value, if this parameter value is small, the abnormality is detected by mistake during normal read processing, and resetting is not performed. It will take. On the other hand, when the parameter value is large, it takes too much time to detect the abnormality, and the processing speed in the communication system 100 becomes slow.
- the value of the parameter for performing abnormality detection is set to an optimum value according to the content of the command from the master device 110, so the content of the command such as read and write. Accordingly, it is possible to appropriately detect an abnormality. For this reason, it is possible to prevent the abnormality from being erroneously detected during normal operation and being reset. Further, it can be prevented that it takes time to detect the abnormality and the processing speed in the communication system 100 is slowed down.

- the arithmetic processing unit 138 may be provided inside the control unit 131.
- the abnormality detection unit 134 is provided with an internal counter 134a for detecting the time during which the SCL clock signal is at a low level.
- the abnormality detection unit 134 may be configured to detect the low level time of the SCL clock signal. This is not a limitation.
- the master device 110 receives data “0xFF” in the case of reading, and in the case of ACK signal that does not return within a certain period in the case of writing,
- the slave device 130 recognizes that the communication has been initialized
- the present invention is not limited to such an example.
- a notification line for notifying the master device 110 from the slave device 130 may be added. By performing initialization notification using such a notification line, it is possible to notify the master device 110 that initialization has been performed more quickly.

スタートコンディション認識部132aは、マスター装置110が送信し、I/F部137で受信されたデータからスタートコンディションを検出する。
内部カウンタ132bは、スタートコンディション認識部132aがスタートコンディションを検出すると、このスタートコンディションから所定のビット数後に配置されているコマンドの内容を示すビットを特定し、このビットの値をレジスタ132cに格納する。例えば、スレーブアドレスが7ビットの場合、内部カウンタ132bは、SCLのクロック数をカウントすることで、スタートコンディションから8クロック後に到来するコマンド内容ビットを特定する。なお、内部カウンタ132bは、レジスタ132cの値を更新した際には、パラメータ設定部133にイネーブル信号を出力する。
レジスタ132cは、内部カウンタ132bから送られてくるビットの値(コマンド内容ビットの値)を格納する。
内部カウンタ134aは、SCLよりも2倍以上周波数の高い専用クロックでSCLの状態をラッチし、SCLのクロック信号がローレベルとなっている時間をカウントする。なお、パラメータ設定部133で設定される最大時間を示すパラメータの値は、内部カウンタ134aの動作クロックである専用クロックでその最大時間をカウントした場合のカウント値となっている。
比較部134bは、内部カウンタ134aでのカウント値が、パラメータ設定部133が設定したパラメータの値を超えると、通信異常を通知するための通信異常信号を初期化部136に与える。
図6は、IIC通信で、マスター装置110がリードのコマンドを出して、データを取得する際のシーケンスを示す概略図である。なお、図6ではスレーブ装置130のアドレス幅を7ビットとしている。
リードデータを受け取ると、マスター装置110では、制御部111が、I/F部112を介して、ACK信号をスレーブ装置130に返信する(S6)。そして、スレーブ装置130では、制御部131が、I/F部137を介して、リードデータの送信を行う(S7)。これに対して、マスター装置110では、制御部111が、I/F部112を介して、ACK信号をスレーブ装置130に返信する(S8)。
ACK信号を受け取ると、マスター装置110では、制御部111が、I/F部112を介して、SCLのクロック信号の立ち上がりに同期してライトデータをスレーブ装置130に送信する(S14)。
そして、ライトデータを受け取ったスレーブ装置130では、制御部131が、I/F部137を介して、ACK信号の返信を行う(S15)。また、制御部131は、受信準備等のためにSCLのクロック信号をローレベルに固定し、受信準備等が完了した後に、SCLのクロック信号のローレベルへの固定を解除する。これに対して、マスター装置110では、制御部111が、I/F部112を介して、ライトデータをスレーブ装置130に送信する(S16)。スレーブ装置130は、I/F部137を介して、ACK信号を返信する(S17)。
まず、スレーブ装置130の制御部131は、I/F部137を介して、スタートコンディションを認識し、マスター装置110から送信されるスレーブアドレスと、コマンドとを受信する(S20)。
マスター装置110とスレーブ装置130との間で、通常の通信において「0xFF」となるデータを送受信しないように取り決めておくことで、マスター装置110は、「0xFF」となるリードデータが連続して入力された場合、スレーブ装置130において通信が初期化されたと認識し、再度、スタートコンディションを生成し、スレーブアドレス及びコマンドの内容を出力し、スレーブ装置130との通信を再開する。
なお、スレーブ装置130において通信が初期化されたと認識する「0xFF」となるリードデータの連続入力回数は、マスター装置110が備える図示していない内部レジスタに設定されているものとする。そして、例えば、マスター装置110の制御部111は、この内部レジスタの値と、「0xFF」となるリードデータの連続入力回数をカウントアップするカウンタの値とを比較して、スレーブ装置130において通信が初期化されたか否かを判断する。
そのため、リードとライトで異常を検出するためのパラメータの値が同じ値になっていると、このパラメータの値が小さい場合は、正常なリード処理中に誤って異常が検出されてしまい、リセットがかかってしまう。一方、パラメータの値が大きい場合は、異常の検出に時間がかかりすぎて、通信システム100内での処理速度が遅くなってしまう。
次に、実施の形態2について説明する。図1に示されているように、実施の形態2に係る通信システム200は、マスター装置110と、スレーブ装置230とを備える。実施の形態2に係る通信システム200は、スレーブ装置230において、実施の形態1に係る通信システム100と異なっている。実施の形態2におけるスレーブ装置230は、コマンドの内容がリードの場合には、コマンドを受信してからリードデータを送信するまでの時間と、リード用に設定されたパラメータの値に対応する時間とを比較し、また、コマンドの内容がライトの場合には、コマンドを受信してからライトデータを受信するまでの時間と、ライト用に設定されたパラメータの値に対応する時間とを比較する。
また、制御部231は、初期化部136からリセット信号を受け取ると、通信処理を初期化(リセット)して、再度、マスター装置110からのコマンド待ち状態に移行する。
さらに、制御部231は、I/F部137を介して、マスター装置110から「リード」のコマンドを受け、このコマンドに対するリードデータを送信した際に、リードデータを送信したことを示すリードデータ送信通知を異常検出部234に与える。例えば、制御部231は、制御部231内の送信バッファ231aにリードデータを格納し、このリードデータをI/F部137を介してマスター装置110に送信する処理を行うことで、この送信バッファ231aが空になった際(送信が完了した際)に、IRQ2において信号をアサートすることで、リードデータ送信通知を行う。
さらにまた、制御部231は、I/F部137を介して、マスター装置110から「ライト」のコマンドを受け、このコマンドに対するライトデータを受信した際に、ライトデータを受信したことを示すライトデータ受信通知を異常検出部234に与える。例えば、制御部231は、I/F部137を介して取得したライトデータを、制御部231内の受信バッファ231bに格納し、このライトデータを演算処理部138又は図示してはいないメモリ等に与えることで、この受信バッファ231bが空になった際(受信が完了した際)に、IRQ2において信号をアサートすることで、ライトデータ受信通知を行う。
なお、異常検出部234は、制御部231からのリードデータ送信通知又はライトデータ受信通知を受けた場合には、時間の計測を終了する。
内部カウンタ234aは、専用クロックにてIRQ1の信号がアサートされてからの時間をカウントする。なお、パラメータ設定部233により設定される最大時間を示すパラメータの値は、内部カウンタ234aの動作クロックである専用クロックでその最大時間をカウントした場合のカウント値となっている。また、内部カウンタ234aは、IRQ2の信号がアサートされた場合には、カウントを停止する。
比較部234bは、内部カウンタ234aでのカウント値が、パラメータ設定部233が設定したパラメータの値を超えると、通信異常を通知するための通信異常信号を初期化部136に与える。
まず、スレーブ装置230の制御部231は、I/F部137を介して、スタートコンディションを認識し、マスター装置110から送信されるスレーブアドレスと、コマンドの内容を受信する(S30)。
また、実施の形態2においては、コマンドの内容がライトである場合には、パラメータ設定部233が設定するパラメータの値は、コマンドを受信してから、ライトデータの受信が完了するまでの最大時間に対応する値であるが、このような値に限定されるものではない。例えば、パラメータ設定部233が設定するパラメータの値は、コマンドを受信してから、ライトデータの受信を開始するまでの最大時間としてもよい。このような場合には、例えば、制御部231は、制御部231内の受信バッファ231bにライトデータを格納し始めた際に、IRQ2において信号をアサートすることで、ライトデータ受信通知を行う。
次に、実施の形態3について説明する。図1に示されているように、実施の形態3に係る通信システム300は、マスター装置310と、スレーブ装置130とを備える。実施の形態3に係る通信システム300は、マスター装置310において、実施の形態1に係る通信システム100と異なっている。実施の形態3では、マスター装置310でも初期化処理を行う。
また、制御部311は、初期化部317からリセット信号を受け取ると、通信処理を初期化(リセット)し、再度、リセットされた通信処理を開始する。
さらに、制御部311は、IICプロトコルに従ってスレーブ装置130と通信を行っている最中に、スレーブ装置130が通信の初期化(リセット)を行った場合には、初期化された通信を再開する処理を行う。
さらに、制御部311は、I/F部112を介してスレーブ装置130へ送信するコマンドの内容をコマンド保持部313に与える。
比較部315bは、内部カウンタ315aでのカウント値が、パラメータ設定部314が設定したパラメータの値を超えると、通信異常を通知するための通信異常信号を初期化部317に与える。
次に、実施の形態4について説明する。図1に示されているように、実施の形態4に係る通信システム400は、マスター装置410と、スレーブ装置230とを備える。実施の形態4に係る通信システム400は、マスター装置410において、実施の形態2に係る通信システム200と異なっている。実施の形態4では、マスター装置410において、リードの場合には、リードのコマンドを送信してからリードデータを受信するまでの時間と、リード用に設定されたパラメータで示される時間とが比較され、また、ライトの場合には、ライトのコマンドを送信してからライトデータを送信するまでの時間と、ライト用に設定されたパラメータで示される時間とが比較される。
また、制御部411は、初期化部317からリセット信号を受け取ると、通信処理を初期化(リセット)し、再度、リセットされた通信処理を開始する。
さらに、制御部411は、IICプロトコルに従ってスレーブ装置230と通信を行っている最中に、スレーブ装置230が通信の初期化(リセット)を行った場合には、初期化された通信を再開する処理を行う。
さらにまた、制御装置411は、I/F部112を介してスレーブ装置230へ送信するコマンドの内容をコマンド保持部313に与える。
また、制御部411は、I/F部112を介して、スレーブ装置230に「リード」のコマンドを与え、このコマンドに対するリードデータを受信した際に、リードデータを受信したことを示すリードデータ受信通知を異常検出部415に与える。例えば、制御部411は、I/F部112を介して、受け取ったリードデータを、制御部411内の受信バッファ411bに格納を開始した際(受信を開始した際)に、IRQ4において信号をアサートすることで、リードデータ受信通知を行う。
さらにまた、制御部411は、I/F部112を介して、スレーブ装置230に「ライト」のコマンドを与え、このコマンドに対するライトデータを送信した際に、ライトデータを送信したことを示すライトデータ送信通知を異常検出部415に与える。例えば、制御部411は、制御部411内の送信バッファ411aにライトデータを格納し、このライトデータをI/F部137を介してマスター装置110に送信する処理を開始した際(送信を開始した際)に、IRQ4において信号をアサートすることで、ライトデータ送信通知を行う。
なお、異常検出部415は、制御部411からのリードデータ受信通知又はライトデータ送信通知を受けた場合には、時間の計測を終了する。
内部カウンタ415aは、専用クロックを用いてIRQ3の信号がアサートされてからの時間をカウントする。なお、パラメータ設定部414により設定される最大時間を示すパラメータの値は、内部カウンタ415aの動作クロックである専用クロックでその最大時間をカウントした場合のカウント値となっている。また、内部カウンタ415aは、IRQ4の信号がアサートされた場合には、カウントを停止する。
比較部415bは、内部カウンタ415aでのカウント値が、パラメータ設定部414が設定したパラメータの値を超えると、通信異常を通知するための通信異常信号を初期化部317に与える。
また、実施の形態4においては、コマンドの内容がライトである場合には、パラメータ設定部414が設定するパラメータの値は、コマンドを送信してから、ライトデータの送信が開始されるまでの最大時間に対応する値であるが、このような値に限定されるものではない。例えば、パラメータ設定部414が設定するパラメータの値は、コマンドを送信してから、ライトデータの送信が完了するまでの最大時間としてもよい。このような場合には、例えば、制御部411は、制御部411内の送信バッファ411aにライトデータを格納し、I/F部112を介して、このライトデータをスレーブ装置に送信することで、送信バッファ411aが空になった際に、IRQ4において信号をアサートすることで、ライトデータ送信通知を行う。
