  Setting up Arduino Uno to be I2C Slave

  In this example, we use Ameba as the I2C master writer, and use Arduino as the I2C slave receiver.
  When the I2C slave receives string sent from I2C master, it prints the received string.

  • Setting up Arduino Uno to be I2C Slave

  First, select Arduino in the Arduino IDE in “Tools” -> “Board” -> “Arduino Uno”
  Open the “Slave Receiver” example in “Examples” -> “Wire” -> “slave_receiver”:

  
  Then click “Sketch” -> “Upload” to compile and upload the example to Arduino Uno.

  Setting up Ameba to be I2C Master

  Next, open another window of Arduino IDE, make sure to choose your Ameba development board in the IDE: “Tools” -> “Board”
  Then open the “Master Writer” example in “File” -> “Examples” -> “AmebaWire” -> “MasterWriter”

  Final Result

  Open the Arduino IDE of the Arduino Uno and open the serial monitor (“Tools” -> “Serial Monitor”).
  In the Serial Monitor, you can see the messages printed from Arduino Uno.
  Next, press the reset button on Arduino Uno. Now the Arduino Uno is waiting for the connection from I2C Master.
  We press the reset button on Ameba to start to send messages. Then observe the serial monitor, you can see the messages show up every half second.
