I2C comunication doesn't work

[DannyB]

Hello

I am trying to drive a MEMS mirror via I2C communication using the nucleo-h723zg board.

This is the clock configuration:

 

Then I activated the I2C1 as follow: 

 

I used the pins PB8 and PB9 for SCL and SDA:

I'm using the DAC called MCP47x6A0T, so the address should be:

static const uint8_t DAC_Address= 0x60;

 

Then I give an input data:

static const uint8_t MEMS_Digital_Input2= 0x1C;

and then I use the function Master Transmit in the while loop:

HAL_I2C_Master_Transmit(&hi2c1, DAC_Address, MEMS_Digital_Input2, 1, HAL_MAX_DELAY);

I've this circuit connected to the microcontroller:

 

Using an oscilloscope and a multimeter I'm always measuring 0V and I can't see the SCL and SDA signals.

Do you know where am I doing wrong?

Kind regards

Does HAL_I2C_IsDeviceReady return HAL_OK? Start there. If not, here are some possibilities:

• You're using the wrong slave address.
• Slave is not powered.
• Wiring is incorrect.
• You are monitoring the wrong pins.

Slave address is shifted left 1 bit, so 0xC0 is the correct address here, not 0x60.

@DannyB Did you see my reply above? Did you fix the slave address?

[DannyB]

@TDK I fixed the slave address but nothing is changed. I've to check the HAL_I2C_IsDeviceReady function. 

Because @Andrew Neil  when I measure with the oscilloscope both signals are at 0V. So it seems I have no output signal from the microcontroller.

Have you checked that there's nothing on the Nucleo board already using these pins?

You seems to have some 3-to-5V translation going on, and at least 1 connector - so where, exactly, are you measuring?

 

The MCP4706 can work at 3V - so have you tried a direct connection?

[DannyB]

I checked the pin and it should be okay.

 

On the oscilloscope Im measuring directly on the I2C connector pins. With the Multimeter Im measunig on the output voltage of the DAC, so on the resistor R3.

 

No, I didn't tried a direct connection

You need to check two pins: PB8 and PB9

Which I2C connector ?

How are you connecting to the Nucleo board ?

The default is that PB8 & PB9 are not connected to the Zio headers:
