Max V I2C hardware connection

I am implementing I2C slaves on Max V to for reading of registers. 1) Can the I2C be connected to any I/O pins? 2) The master is a I2C, 5V. The handbook mentioned that Max V can be 5V tolerant wi...

You mentioned "Max V does not have dedicated I2C slaves. If you'd like to use it, you will have to develop controller inside of the FPGA." But that does not answer if I2C can be connected electrically to any of the I/O pins. When I said connect electrically, I mean the physical pin of MaxV. Can MaxV I/O pin be connected directly to an I2C or does it need an external I2C to LVTTL translator?

    Hello,

    From my last post, developing a controller meaning writing an RTL for that. Once you have done that, the pins should be connected with right IO standard according to the Max V datasheet.

    Thank you
