12.1.1 I2C Design Guidelines
Care must be taken to ensure I2C peripherals on the same I2C bus connected to the Orin
module, do not have duplicate addresses. Addresses can be in two forms: 7-bit, with the
read/write bit removed or 8-bit including the read/write bit. Be sure to compare I2C device
addresses using the same form (all 7-bit or all 8-bit format).
Note: The Orin module I2C interfaces have pull-ups on the module (See Table 12-1 or Table 12-3
for values). Pads for additional pull-ups are recommended in case a stronger pull-up is required
due to additional loading on the interfaces.
12.1.2 I2C routing Guidelines
This section describes the I2C routing guidelines for Orin module.
Table 12-2. I2C Interface Signal Routing Requirements
Max frequency: Standard-mode / Fm / Fm+
Single ended, bi-directional, multiple initiators/targets
Max loading: Standard-mode / Fm / Fm+
Max trace length/delay
Standard Mode
Fm, Fm+ Modes
Notes:
1. Fm = Fast-mode, Fm+ = Fast-mode Plus
2. Avoid routing I2C signals near noisy traces, supplies or components such as a switching power regulator.
3. No requirement for decoupling caps for PWR reference.
