HAL library error for I2C mode EEPROM

[JChoi.6]

After updating the i2c library to the latest version, I got a write error. After reverting the library to the previous version, the error went away and the location where the error was returned is:

stm32f3xx_hal_i2c.c / I2C_IsErrorOccurred()

Line 7255

It looks like there's probably something wrong with the acknowledge polling process to know when the write cycle is finished.

 

CubeMX V6.13.0

MCU Package STM32F3 Series V1.11.5

STM32F334K6Tx

I2C EEPROM: AT24C16D

What error, exactly, did you get?

Did you check the I2C lines with a logic analyser to see if the hardware is behaving correctly?

[JChoi.6]

The error was returned when calling the HAL_I2C_Mem_Write function consecutively.
I don't think it's a hardware issue because the problem disappeared when I reverted the library to a previous version.
If I use a debugger to insert a breakpoint at the beginning of the HAL_I2C_Mem_Write function, the error does not occur.
Also, the custom I2C EEPROM read/write function is widely used in other products of our company, so it has been sufficiently verified.

 

Relevant source code is attached.

 

Thank you for your interest.

Again, what error was it?

I ran into this today too. When writing to my EEPROM (24LC64T-E/SN) with STM32Cube MCU Package for STM32G4 series v1.6.0 I would fail the second write if I had multiple writes in a row. If I used the debugger I did not fail any of the writes.

The failures came from I2C_IsErrorOccurred() called inside I2C_WaitOnFlagUntilTimeout(). If I go back to v1.5.0 the I2C_IsErrorOccurred() call isn't in I2C_WaitOnFlagUntilTimeout() and my EEPROM writes are successful.

Did you ever get a fix for the newest HAL or did you just stay with the old one?
