Abstract :
In this paper, we will present the communication controller for the power meter IC. The realized controller is based on the I2C communication standard. The I2C standard was modified in order to provide addressing (for reading and writing) 24-bit memory words in DSP part of the PMIC, instead of addressing individual PMICs. The controller contains the mechanism for the synchronization with DSP, which doesn´t interfere DSP´s performance. The design is synthesized using AMS 0.35 μm standard cells, and can be utilized in final product realization. Simulation results are also presented in the paper.
