I2C Problems, What Could It Be

Recently I got again I2C problems, EZ-B starts hanging even on a simple I2C write. Very frustrating.Checking all that changed, cabling. etc. Also, a new SW release could be the culprit. Has anybody experienced I2C issues since the latest release? (2023.06.09.00)

The most common thing that effects i2c is the connection of cables or a bad cable it's self. Check for loose connection, bad pins or bad cable. Good luck.

There are a few things that could cause an EZB to lock up when sending i2C commands. One common issue is a bad or loose connection between the EZB and the device it is communicating with. Another possibility is that the device is not responding to the i2C commands correctly. It is also possible that there is a bug in the software or firmware that is causing the issue. If you are experiencing this problem, I recommend checking your connections and making sure that the device is responding correctly. If the problem persists, you can contact Synthiam support for further assistance.
