2 months ago The ESP32's Slave works differently than all other chips we have. ESP32 needs data to be PRELOADED before the request is received. Fore reference are these lines in the slave example. That is why there is no delay between the address and the data. All other chips wait for the request to be handled and data written to the fifo, which is then returned.
In the code above, ESP32 returns the previous Wire.write.

2 months ago The issue i am having is with the ESP32-S3 as a slave.
The first byte that the S3 slave sends is the slave address and not the data that was requested and it is trying to write with
Wire.write(batata.b, 4); in the onRequest().
This happens even when the master is an STM arm based flight controller.
This is also happening if i program the S3 with IDF.

2 months ago I tried the code. the only change I made was to write two bytes, because that is how many you read in your master sketch and the result is as expected
requestFrom: 2
0x06, 0x03, // ..Thank you. I have noticed that works in this case. The code i put here is a very simplified version of what i am making and in that sometimes the data comes clean and sometimes it comes contaminated with a random byte. What confuses me is that the random byte that appears is the slave address byte. Is this a normal thing?
As a further experiment into this, if you request 5 bytes and the slave writes 4 bytes the response fluctuates:
requestFrom: 5 0x61, 0x61, 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, // aa... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x06, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, 0x03, // ..... requestFrom: 5 0x61, 0x61, 0x61, 0x61, 0x61, // aaaaa requestFrom: 5
Why is the slave address appearing in the data?

2 months ago where is it appearing? the slave address is 0x30 not 0x03

2 months ago Please make sure that you write as many bytes as will be read. That is important, else you are reading random bytes in the fifo
JorgeMALopes
commented
2 months ago The slave address is 0x30, if you bit shift it left once and put in the read bit it becomes 0x61. This follows when i change the slave address, 0x10 becomes 0x21. This is the data that is poluting the response.
Here is a capture of the data, notice that the first byte that is received as data is the same as the address byte plus the read bit.
Also I got it to get that random byte to appear even when i request the same size of data that the slave is writing.
I did one request for 1 byte, uploaded to the esp32 master and then changed the code and requested 4 bytes and uploaded to esp32 master, now it is locked in this situation. It comes out of this situation when i reset the S3.
Also it is kind of weird that if i place 4 known bytes in the fifo and read 3 bytes the first byte is the device address bit shifted left once plus the read bit.

commented
2 months ago After some playing around i noticed that if the ESP32 S3 slave does not write to the fifo then what is read by the ESP32 master is the left bit shifted address of the slave + 1.
Does this mean that on the previous examples the ESP32 S3 slave is to slow to populate the fifo?
I hope i am not being annoying, am truly trying to figure this out. I am trying to avoid having to replace the ESP32 S3 with something else that is more stable.
Thanks for all the help.

}What i should be getting is:
I am getting this:
Notice the decimal 97 =0x61 when i request the health byte and the 768097 value, if you convert it into hex you get 0x0B, 0xB8 and 0x61, the value that is the slave adress bit shifted left + 1.
There are no tricks, I send the same amount of bytes that are requested.
It fixes itself if i reset the slave. This is not optimal.

2 months ago One suggestion for your use case. Use Wire.slaveWrite(data, len) instead of Wire.write(data, len). Then you can load the values directly in the onReceive callback. That will make communication faster too. Also do not print inside the callbacks. It takes time and slows things down.
void onReceive(int len) { // on receive function, used to update local variables or activate local functions
i2cCommand = 0; // resets the command
opcode = Wire.read(); // reads the operation code
if (len == 2) { // if there are 2 bytes
i2cCommand = Wire.read(); // the second byte is the command
}
loadValues(); // load the values here
}

............Wonderful. Thank you. I will try it now.

2 months ago It worked with the code as is. But stops working when i add the rest. In the device i am making the ESP32S3 is an interpreter for a BQ769142. The S3 controls and gets the data from the BQ769142, via I2C as a master, does some simple calculations and then feeds it via I2C to a flight controller as slave.
As soon as i add the BQ769142 code to it the communication with the flight controller breaks. I am going to desolder the S3 from the board and wire up a standard ESP32 and try that. If i have success i will inform. For now i think the S3 is not a viable device for an i2c slave.
Thanks for all the help.

2 months ago Still no success with the regular ESP32. I have a question but i am unsure if i should create a new thread elsewhere or ask here so i can figure out how to fix this or if this is fixable.
Can an ESP32 be an i2c master on one bus and obtain data from a bunch of sensors, do some calculations and then have it available as a slave on a separate bus?
Thanks for all the help.

2 months ago Ok, going to try and figure that out. Thanks for everything.

2 months ago Figured it out. Tried it with a S3, it works.
Modified my main code, did not work with either esp32 or S3. Start hunting down the culprit. Found it. It was trying to write to a position outside of an array.
There is no bug in the I2C bus on the S3, it just behaves differently when compared to the regular ESP32, but still works fine as long as you ask as many bytes as you write on the other side.
I think i can finish the rest of the code.
I think this thread can be closed now. Thanks for all the help!!

Description
When i connect an ESP32S3 as an I2C slave to an ESP32 or a drone flight controller, as a master, the data comes out wrong. When i reverse the code and the S3 is the master and the ESP32 is the slave then the data comes out correct.
I made a simple sketch where the slave returns 4 bytes when there is a request, 0x01FF0306 or 0x01FF03FF. The master requests a variable amount of bytes, sometimes more, sometimes less. When the S3 is the slave the first byte received from it is the slave address followed by part of the slave data. When the ESP32 is the slave then only data is returned.
I have asked a friend to lend me his oscilloscope so i can check the data lines for each case.
These are the lines for the S3 as a slave, notice the long time after the request and the repetition of the slave address.
This is the lines for ESP32 as slave, the delay is minimal and there is no repetition of the slave address.
The most stable case was then the returned bytes where of the same quantity as the requested ones, but sometimes the device address appears in the beginning and the only way to fix it is to reset the S3 which is not a viable solution.
I have tested with wire and wire1 and tested with other connections on the S3.
