I2C on ESP8266 broken in 1v92 and later, worked in 1v91

  • Downloaded from github yesterday, and compiled on linux.
    Then I deleted flash and flashed the new version on an esp8266-01.
    I still can not see any errors here, but maybe I'm using a wrong eeprom?

    This is my test setup.

  • Frida - look at your test results again - your logs above show the problem occuring!

    You started with the first two bytes on the EEPROM being [99,55], then you wrote [55,99] to those bytes - and then read it back out and those two bytes were still [99,55] - just like what I see: Write doesn't work!

  • I've made some changes now for ESP8266 and software I2C that may fix this - but I'm working blind as I don't have an EEPROM on me to test with.
    With this FW image:

    the waveforms look better on the scope - but I still can't get it to work correctly, and now I don't really understand why. Same symptoms though. I can't figure out why it's not working - especially because, as I mentioned, it doesn't fail with the scope connected.

    I'm not sure what's going on with the Software I2C. When using I2Ctouse=new I2C({scl:5,sda:4,bitrate:100000}); my scope refuses to trigger at all off of any I2C conditions. With the I2C triggering off, I don't see any signal going by at all when using software I2C...

  • Paul is writing to offset 2 eeprom.write(2,[55,99]), I also missed this on first sight :)

  • Tried today with an atmlu016 on breadboard, without pullup resistors and without capacitor. Can not see any problems here.
