# DeviceAddDemo for SSD1306 I received a question about using an SSD1306 and other i2c/spi devices at the same time. A new i2c driver is now available in ESP-IDF V5.2. This complicated the use of other i2c devices at the same time as the i2c's SSD1306. I will record the survey results here. If you want to use SSD1306 and other i2c/spi devices at the same time, please follow the guide below. # Using i2c interface ### Use multiple i2c devices on one i2c bus. SCL and SDA are shared by all devices. ``` I2C_NUM_0 --+-- I2C SSD1306 +---Any I2C Device ``` In the XTENSA series, you can use I2C_NUM_1 bus instead of I2C_NUM_0 bus. ``` I2C_NUM_1 --+-- I2C SSD1306 +---Any I2C Device ``` - Legacy driver We only need to run this code once. There is no need to memorize any data. SSD1306 and other device use the same frequency. __Please note that the maximum i2c clock frequency of SSD1306 is 400KHz.__ Under ESP-IDF V5.2 or later, this project uses the new I2C driver, but there is an option to force the use of the legacy I2C driver. ``` i2c_config_t i2c_config = { .mode = I2C_MODE_MASTER, .sda_io_num = CONFIG_SDA_GPIO, .scl_io_num = CONFIG_SCL_GPIO, .sda_pullup_en = GPIO_PULLUP_ENABLE, .scl_pullup_en = GPIO_PULLUP_ENABLE, .master.clk_speed = I2C_MASTER_FREQ_HZ }; ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_param_config(I2C_NUM_0, &i2c_config)); ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_driver_install(I2C_NUM_0, I2C_MODE_MASTER, 0, 0, 0)); ``` This project uses the following functions to install the i2c driver. ``` i2c_master_init(&dev, CONFIG_SDA_GPIO, CONFIG_SCL_GPIO, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` This project allows you to use an initialization function that does not install the i2c driver. ``` i2c_device_add(&dev, i2c_num, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` The i2c driver must be installed before using this initialization function. ``` // install i2c master driver i2c_config_t i2c_config = { .mode = I2C_MODE_MASTER, .sda_io_num = CONFIG_SDA_GPIO, .scl_io_num = CONFIG_SCL_GPIO, .sda_pullup_en = GPIO_PULLUP_ENABLE, .scl_pullup_en = GPIO_PULLUP_ENABLE, .master.clk_speed = 400000 }; ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_param_config(I2C_NUM_0, &i2c_config)); ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_driver_install(I2C_NUM_0, I2C_MODE_MASTER, 0, 0, 0)); // add new device to i2c bus i2c_device_add(&dev, I2C_NUM_0, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` - New i2c driver We need to run this code on the first i2c device. ``` i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config = { .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT, .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7, .i2c_port = I2C_NUM_0, .scl_io_num = scl, .sda_io_num = sda, .flags.enable_internal_pullup = true, }; i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle; ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config, &bus_handle)); i2c_device_config_t dev_cfg = { .dev_addr_length = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7, .device_address = I2C_ADDRESS1, .scl_speed_hz = I2C_MASTER_FREQ_HZ1, }; i2c_master_dev_handle_t dev_handle; ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_bus_add_device(bus_handle, &dev_cfg, &dev_handle)); ``` We need to run this code on the second device. SSD1306 and other device can use different frequencies. ``` i2c_device_config_t dev_cfg = { .dev_addr_length = I2C_ADDR_BIT_LEN_7, .device_address = I2C_ADDRESS2, .scl_speed_hz = I2C_MASTER_FREQ_HZ2, }; i2c_master_dev_handle_t dev_handle; ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_master_bus_add_device(bus_handle, &dev_cfg, &dev_handle)); ``` This project uses the following functions to install the i2c driver. ``` i2c_master_init(&dev, CONFIG_SDA_GPIO, CONFIG_SCL_GPIO, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` This project allows you to use an initialization function that does not install the i2c driver. ``` i2c_bus_add(&dev, bus_handle, i2c_num, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` The i2c driver must be installed before using this initialization function. ``` // install i2c master driver i2c_master_bus_config_t i2c_mst_config = { .clk_source = I2C_CLK_SRC_DEFAULT, .glitch_ignore_cnt = 7, .i2c_port = I2C_NUM_0, .scl_io_num = CONFIG_SCL_GPIO, .sda_io_num = CONFIG_SDA_GPIO, .flags.enable_internal_pullup = true, }; i2c_master_bus_handle_t bus_handle; ESP_ERROR_CHECK(i2c_new_master_bus(&i2c_mst_config, &bus_handle)); // add new device to i2c bus i2c_bus_add(&dev, bus_handle, I2C_NUM_0, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` --- ### Use multiple i2c devices on two i2c bus. SCL and SDA each use separate GPIOs. Install the i2c master driver for each of I2C_NUM_0 and I2C_NUM_1. The frequencies of I2C_NUM_0 and I2C_NUM_1 can be set completely independently. ``` I2C_NUM_0 ----- I2C SSD1306 I2C_NUM_1 ----- Any I2C Device ``` This is possible with both the new i2c driver or the legacy i2c driver, but **both buses must use the same driver.** This is not acceptable. ``` I2C_NUM_0 ----- I2C SSD1306 using new i2c driver I2C_NUM_1 ----- Any I2C Device using legacy i2c driver ``` If other i2c devices use legacy i2c drivers, SSD1306 must also use legacy i2c drivers. Under ESP-IDF V5.2 or later, this project uses the new I2C driver, but there is an option to force the use of the legacy I2C driver. ``` I2C_NUM_0 ----- I2C SSD1306 using legacy i2c driver I2C_NUM_1 ----- Any I2C Device using legacy i2c driver ``` If SSD1306 use new i2c drivers, other i2c devices must also use new i2c drivers. ``` I2C_NUM_0 ----- I2C SSD1306 using new i2c driver I2C_NUM_1 ----- Any I2C Device using new i2c driver ``` ESP32C series has only one i2c bus. This is not available on the ESP32C series. Can only be used with XTENSA series. --- # Using spi interface ### Use multiple spi devices on one spi bus. MOSI and SCLK are shared by all devices. ``` SPI2_HOST --+-- SPI SSD1306 +---Any SPI Device ``` In the XTENSA series, you can use SPI2_HOST bus instead of SPI3_HOST bus. ``` SPI3_HOST --+-- SPI SSD1306 +---Any SPI Device ``` We only need to run this code once. ``` spi_bus_config_t spi_bus_config = { .mosi_io_num = CONFIG_MOSI_GPIO, .miso_io_num = -1, .sclk_io_num = CONFIG_SCLK_GPIO, .quadwp_io_num = -1, .quadhd_io_num = -1, .max_transfer_sz = 0, .flags = 0 }; ESP_LOGI(tag, "SPI HOST_ID=%d", host_id); esp_err_t ret = spi_bus_initialize( host_id, &spi_bus_config, SPI_DMA_CH_AUTO ); ESP_LOGI(tag, "spi_bus_initialize=%d",ret); ``` This project uses the following functions to install the spi driver. ``` spi_master_init(&dev, CONFIG_MOSI_GPIO, CONFIG_SCLK_GPIO, CONFIG_CS_GPIO, CONFIG_DC_GPIO, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` This project allows you to use an initialization function that does not install the spi driver. ``` spi_device_add(&dev, CONFIG_CS_GPIO, CONFIG_DC_GPIO, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` The spi driver must be installed before using this initialization function. ``` // install spi master driver spi_bus_config_t spi_bus_config = { .mosi_io_num = CONFIG_MOSI_GPIO, .miso_io_num = -1, .sclk_io_num = CONFIG_SCLK_GPIO, .quadwp_io_num = -1, .quadhd_io_num = -1, .max_transfer_sz = 0, .flags = 0 }; esp_err_t ret = spi_bus_initialize( SPI2_HOST, &spi_bus_config, SPI_DMA_CH_AUTO ); ESP_LOGI(tag, "spi_bus_initialize=%d",ret); assert(ret==ESP_OK); // add new device to spi bus spi_device_add(&dev, CONFIG_CS_GPIO, CONFIG_DC_GPIO, CONFIG_RESET_GPIO); ``` ### Use multiple spi devices on two spi bus. MOSI and SCLK each use separate GPIOs. Install the spi master driver for each of SPI2_HOST and SPI3_HOST. ``` SPI2_HOST ----- SPI SSD1306 SPI3_HOST ----- Any SPI Device ``` ESP32C series has only one spi bus.
