1. INTRODUCTION
The JI-300 is a versatile, easy to use, PC hosted adapter used to drive I2C communications
to/from a target bus. The desktop unit can be configured to interface a variety of I2C networks.
Bus parameters such as clock frequency, duty-cycle, setup and hold times, bus voltage, and pullup resistor values can be varied. JI-300’s diagnostic features including “excessive clock-stretch”,
“bus-not-free”, and “bus contention” monitoring, as well as status reporting at the conclusion of
each message transaction simplifies I2C trouble-shooting. A Windows software application
manages the setup and control of the instrument. Communications and unit power is provided via
a USB 2.0 connection.
Features
• Programmable SCL clock frequency from 255Hz to 3.8Mhz (20nS steps).
• Variable bus voltage from 1.50V to 5.25V (10mV steps).
• Supports Master and multi-Master operation.
• Software selectable bus pull-up resistors (16 values including open)
• Low I2C bus capacitance (<40pF typ.)
• USB 2.0 host interface
• Switched target bus voltage available at connector
• Easy to use Graphical User Interface (GUI) software.
• Create custom software applications by way of either direct or
Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers. Programming requires no
knowledge of USB!
• Includes everything needed to get started – I2C Adapter unit, I2C cable, USB cable,
and a CD-ROM containing application software and user’s manual.
Applications
• Firmware debugging and hardware troubleshooting
• Production line testing
• Equipment repair and diagnostics

2. GETTING STARTED
2.1 Software Installation
The JI-300 Host Adapter requires the installation of both a USB driver and application software.
The drivers must be installed on the host PC’s hard-drive. The application software, however, can
be installed locally or executed directly from CD-ROM. See appendix C for detailed instructions on
installing both the USB driver and JI-300 application software.
2.2 Hardware Setup
Note that USB drivers for the JI-300 must be installed before the Hardware Setup will run
successfully.
1. Connect the I2C Host Adapter unit to the host PC using 6’ USB cable.
2. After a few seconds, confirm that the JI-300 is powered by verifying that the front panel PWR
LED is on.
2.3 Communications Check
1. Ensure that the I2C Host Adapter unit is connected to the host PC and power is on.
2. Go to the folder C:/JI300/
3. Launch the I2C Host Adapter application by clicking I2C_Bus_Adapter.exe.
4. Verify that the main I2C Host Adapter window is displayed as shown in figure 1.
Figure 1. I2C Host Adapter Main Window
If an error occurs and the window does not appear, begin by verifying that the .NET
Framework is installed. To do this, click Start on your windows desktop, select Control Panel,
and then double-click the Add or Remove Programs icon. When the window appears, scroll
through the list of applications. If you see the .NET Framework 3.0 listed, the latest version is

1.0, 2.1, etc.) If a question mark (?) or some other character appears, an error has occurred.
9. If no errors have occurred (or if errors have been resolved) the Communications Check has
passed.
2.4 I2C Tx/Rx Session
For this exercise, a target slave device (included with the JI-300 kit) or I2C network with at least

3. EEPROM PROGRAMMING UTILITY
This fully integrated utility is designed for programming a variety of EEPROM and memory devices
either in-circuit or standalone. All essential programming functions are provided including device
read, program, and verify, as well as buffer edit, pre-fill, load, and save operations. EEPROM image
data can be loaded from a file, copied from another device, or entered manually using HEX values
and/or ASCII characters. Data can be saved to disk via Intel HEX, Motorola S-Record, or raw Binary
file formats.
Features:
• Devices: Over 100 devices including Atmel, Generic, Microchip,
NXP, ST Micro, and GP Block Reads
• Supported file formats: Intel HEX, Motorola S-Record, and raw Binary.
• Programming voltage: 1.50V to 5.25V
• SCL clock rate: 254Hz to 4.0MHz with variable setup and hold times
3.1 EEPROM Programming Session
This exercise will familiarize the user with the fundamental programming features of the JI-300
EEPROM programming utility.
Before beginning this exercise, be sure that you are somewhat familiar with the controls on the
EEPROM Programming Utility window (Section 4.5) and that you have previously run both the
“Communications Check” and “I2C Tx/Rx Session” exercises in section 2.0.
For this exercise, a target slave device (included with the JI-300 kit) or I2C network with at least
one slave device will be needed. Device power (or network) can be supplied by either the I2C
target or JI-300 Adapter. The following steps are for use with the test M24C04 I2C target device.
1. Begin by executing all 21 steps in the I2C Tx/Rx Session in section 2.4. This will ensure a
working HW connection and valid HW settings.
2. Open the EEPROM Programming Utility window by clicking Utilities, followed by
EEPROM Programming at the main window menu bar.
3. Verify that the EEPROM Programming Utility window is now displayed (See Figure 6)

a. The status text box displays “Verification Error: 9 Byte(s)”
b. 9 address locations are marked red.
c. The red marked locations are where the “Top” and “Bottom” text was typed.
17. Correct the verification error by clicking the Read button. Re-verify by again clicking the
Verify button.
18. After approximately 5 seconds, verify that “Verification Successful!” is displayed in the
status text box and the text “Top” appears at the top of the Buffer and “Bottom” appears at
the bottom of the Buffer.
19. Save Buffer data to file by clicking File at the menu bar, followed by Save Buffer,
followed by Intel HEX.
20. The Save File dialog box is now displayed. Type in an appropriate file name such as
“HEXFile_Test1” and click Save.
21. Buffer data is now saved to file HEXFile_Test1.hex in an Intel HEX file format.
22. Next, the Buffer will be loaded from a file. First, however, the Buffer contents will be filled
with “X”s.
23. Enter 58h in the Fill Value text box and then click the Pre-Fill Buffer button.
24. Load Buffer data to file by clicking File at the menu bar, followed by Load Buffer,
followed by Intel HEX.
25. The Open File dialog box is now displayed. Type in the file name entered in step 20
(“HEXFile_Test1”) and click Open. Buffer data is now reloaded.
26. Verify that “Top” appears at the top of the Buffer and “Bottom” appears at the bottom of
the Buffer.
27. The EEPROM Programming exercise is now complete.
