Design And Implementation of I2C Protocol

Abstract

In this era of efficiency and optimization, we must keep ourselves updated in regard to technology in order to meet the fast growing technical demands for perfection with speed. This project is also an attempt in that direction. This report is focused on the design and verification steps required to achieve i2c protocol. To design and verify ize protocol, we will be requiring the knowledge of digital electronics, verilog, system verilog, and uvm. Multiple communication protocol systems are available in the market, and every peripheral is best in its way. The users opt for a system that's best compatible with the project. If the user wants a faster peripheral, he can/will choose i2c. The "inter integrated circuit" is a serial communication protocol which enables synchronous transmission of data in half duplex mode. In full-duplex mode, transmission is simultaneously bi-directional. For designing purpose, we are using the concepts of digital design and verilog and for the verification environment we use the concepts of system verilog. During the project we were exposed various kinds of methodology used for design and verification purposes and we were able to hone our skills in the visi domain. We have learned many things about the work in the industry. The report specifies the protocol design features and methodology involved in designing the protocol. The verification approach used and how it enhances the performance of the design by finding errors and resolving them.
