Hi,

I have observed that the I2C bus freeze on my new design, and i searched the cause and found this. During my display initialization sometime the I2C stop working with the SDA line stuck to GND. If i reset my display the SDA return to 1 and i can configure it again.

I observed a glitch on the SDA line, witch cause a STOP condition on the I2C bus and halt my controller.

This glitch always happen at the end of the 0x6C command, Follower Control.

I can see the glitch witch cause a stop condition to the I2C controller. I also saw this glitch on the C1+ C1- pins.

I changed my pull-up to 10k (from 4.7k) and it's much better. The glitch is still there but at least i can use my design.

Capacitor is 1uf 50v ceramic.

Any idea?

Thank you.

  Thanks for illustrating the problem, it is interesting. From the ST7036 data sheet, my two cents...
  
  1. After a follower command a delay of > 200 ms is required for "power stable" (p41).
  
  2) At 3.3v the max I2C clock speed is 300kHz (p54). If I am reading the pics correctly, you are below that, but if you could slow down the I2C I wonder what effect it would have on the glitch.
  
  Not sure that either of these are related to the issue you are experiencing.

  Hi Doum, I noticed something similar. Are you still having this issue?
