 		 #172261 - I do not, specifically if ...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Especially when it's just 1 master and 1 slave (possibly the case here) - so no addressing is required.
I do not, specifically if it is to be implemented in software. IIC can wait, SPI can not. also as far as SPI is "simpler" have a look at error detection/recovery. In SPI you need all kinds of back-and-forth, in IIC all you need is a NAK.

anyhow, in my opinion, using chips w/o hardware interfaces for what you need does not make any sense today, in the days when the king of diamonds were still a knight we had to, but no more.

BTW it is kind of amusing to see that Neil agrees with Neil, my first take was agreeing with himself :)

               yes and no            01/01/70 00:00      
      Lots of interfaces - Microwire; SPI; I2C            01/01/70 00:00      
      parallel?            01/01/70 00:00      
   You may use whatever you like!            01/01/70 00:00      
   I2C is serial communication.            01/01/70 00:00
