 		 #109509 - SMB more reliable?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Erik Malund said:
First: I repeat Kalpaks question: Any reason not to use its hardware I2C

2) SILabs does not have an IIC interface it has a SMB interface. This, however is no problem, basically the only difference is that the SMB has a time out which the IIC does not have. I have yet to find ANY problem with using SMB intefaces for IIC.

Erik


If that is the only difference, then does'nt that make SMB a more reliable interface? Sort of hang proof?
