NY10F - I2C |
I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) is a serial communication protocol that is used to attach low-speed peripherals (100 kbit/sec) to a motherboard, embedded system or cell phone. A single I2C data bus may have several devices attached, each with a different 7-bit address. One of the nice things about I2C is that it only requires two signal lines, SCL (clock) and SDA (data). One bit of data is presented on the I2C data bus (SDA line) per clock (SCL). Typically, one device on the bus is designated as the master, and the other devices are slaves. The master will initiate communication to a specific device on the bus by specifying its address in a transaction.
If there is no activity on the I2C bus, both the SCL and SDA signals are in a high state (1). The master initiates a transaction on the bus by pulling the SDA signal to a low state (0), while the SCL signal is high (1): this is called a START bit. At this point, all slaves on the bus must start paying attention to the signalling to see if the transaction is directed at them. The master will then send the 7bit slave address (most significant bit first), one bit at-a-time. This is done by bringing the SCL signal low (0), presenting the next bit value on the SDA line, then releasing the SCL signal so it goes high (1). The slaves will read the SDA signal as soon as the clock goes high (1). This operation is repeated 7 times, one for each bit of the desired slave address. Another data bit is presented on the bus in the same manner. This last bit is an indicator as to whether the master wants to read from (1) or write to (0) the addressed slave device. When a slave recognizes its address on the bus, it must acknowledge (ACK) that it is available and ready by pulling the SDA line low. The master will see this the next time it brings the clock high, at which point, the data transfer can begin. If no ACK is seen this means that the slave specified by the address does not exist. Note: If no device pulls a signal low, it will go high by default; a device simply releases a signal, and it will go high.
Data is always transferred as 8 bit bytes, 1 bit at-a-time, most significant bit first. After each byte, the slave must ACK the master by pulling the SDA line low. If the slave is not ready to transmit (or receive) the next byte of data, it may pull the SCL line low. This will cause the master to go into a wait mode until the slave is ready. The slave indicates it is ready by bringing SDA low, and releasing the SCL line so it goes high. The next byte of data can then be transferred. The sequence repeats until the master decides all the data has been transferred, at which point it will send a STOP bit. This is done when the master lets the SDA line go high while the SCL line is high.
For this problem, you will write a program that sniffs the I2C bus signals and displays the details of transactions.
Input
The first line of input contains a single integer P, (1 ≤ P ≤ 1000), which is the number of data sets that follow. Each data set consists of multiple lines which represents a single I2C transaction. The first line contains two (2) decimal integer values: the problem number, followed by a space, followed by the number of signal samples S, (1 ≤ S ≤ 1161), for the transaction. The remaining line(s) contain(s) the signal samples. Each line of samples contains 40 samples (except the last which may contain less). Each sample consists of 2 binary digits characters representing SCL and SDA in that order.
Output
For each data set, display a single line containing a decimal integer giving the data set number followed by a single space, followed by a description of the transaction. There will only be six different descriptions (two non-error cases, and four error cases):
Non-error cases:
WRITE OF n BYTES TO SLAVE xx
READ OF n BYTES FROM SLAVE xx
Error cases:
ERROR NO START BIT
ERROR NO STOP BIT
ERROR NO ACK FROM SLAVE xx
ERROR NO ACK FOR DATA
n is a decimal integer (1 - 128) representing the number of data bytes.
xx is a 2 digit hexadecimal value (00-7F) representing the slave address.
The ERROR NO ACK FROM SLAVE xx case occurs when there is no ACK for the supplied address
The ERROR NO ACK FOR DATA case occurs when there is no ACK after a data byte
For the error cases, only the first error detected should be displayed.

btw what is the case 00 then 11 isn't it wrong ! if the data change before the clock so it is a 1 sended else if the clock change before the data it's a stop bit ... that occurs in 3rd,4th cases i consider it a NO_STOP_BIT_ERROR once i found it and it works |

it's bad when submit the solution 100 times because of the BAD input handling |

so the stop bit is 0010 THEN 11 i guess... |

@all:yup its 1A actually...:) |

2011-03-30 06:32:55 :D
I'm analyzing this problem right now and yes, I'm also getting 1A. EDIT: Exactly as Pizza boy, I got ac with program giving 1A. Last edit: 2011-03-30 07:06:05 |

I believe it's an error. The address in test case 3 is 0B. |

After wasting 6 hours to figure out why the address of 4th case is 0B, I just submitted my solution to see what it gets and it passed. I have tried many times with pen-paper and every time I've found 1A, not 0B, please correct the samples. |

I don't really understand, why the address in case 4 is 0B, why it is not 1A ? Last edit: 2011-03-28 09:40:15 |
