I found the DS1339 RTC not working on our hardware with the I2C clock frequency set to 400kHz and then checked the bus timing. I found the SCL frequency to be 770kHz instead of 400kHz and 113kHz instead of 100kHz. On what hardware did you do your measurements? The fancy constants -2 and -7 in the calculation were derived from measuring the clock low and high time with low_count and high_count set to 1 and measuring the actual timing of the signal. The clock frequeny in this setup is 2.18 MHz corresponding to 11 clock cycles of the 24MHz clock. The LOW time was about 140ns and the HIGH time 318ns corresponding to 3 and 8 (instead of 1) clock cycles. These constants could be different for different SoCs (i.MX23). But I don't have any hardware to verify that. Maybe some guru from Freescale can comment on this and perhaps document the relationship between the register contents and the actual timing.
