Hello,
I came across your name while researching the i2c and
SMbus architecture. If you have a few moments to
spare of your precious time I would really appreciate
it. Could you clear up a few questions for me? Here
they are:
1.) I notice that most of the i2c programs
I run into connect to an external eeprom
through the laptop serial or parallel port.
But what if I want to read an Eeprom on my
own laptop. That is, the one connected to
the internal SMbus, is this possible?
2.) Do I have to do the i2c start, stop, etc?
3.) What I/O address do I use? With
the aforementioned i2c programs they use
the serial port with address 0xF8. So
what would be the address for the Eeprom
on the SMbus?
4.) Is the I/O address of the SMbus and Eeprom
itself the same on both Linux and Windows
based systems?
5.) What are the I/O address of both on Windows?
6.) What if I wanted to write a DOS based program?
7.) Any simple code examples you could share?
Thanks for your help,
-M-
