17 years ago --- Quote Start --- Hi, just suggestion: in HSMC connectors the I2C bus ( along with JTAG ) are special IOs, not along with others general PIOs. their place also differs among male and female connector. does Santa Cruz behave like this too? why you don't try to put the I2C through other PIOs? --- Quote End --- The SC adapter board reserves the I2C pins off of the HSMC connector for a storage element. I am currently using the pins corresponding to the cameras serial data/clock which are hardwired through the Santa Cruz interface to regular PIO pins on the HSMC. Unfortunately this leaves me little options in terms of rewiring these pins unless I can come up with my own special adapter to sit between the Cyclone III board and the SC adapter board so as to redirect the HSMC I2C to more suitable pins. Has anyone any suggestions?
