I have a project that has a MSP430G2553 master device and a Triple-Axis Digital-Output Gyro ITG-3200 Breakout slave. ITG3200 uses i²c protocol to communicate so i've been checking out the i²c module usage on Msp. For a starter i downloaded the TI I²c examples which can be found in http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/microcontroller/16-bit_msp430/msp430_software_landing.page After i debugged the first code which is between a MSP master and a TMP100 temperature sensor as a slave. Here is the sample code.
//******************************************************************************
// MSP430G2xx3 Demo - USCI_B0 I2C Master to TMP100, Set P1.0 if Temp > 28C
//
// Description: I2C interface to TMP100 temperature sensor in 9-bit mode.
// Timer_A CCR0 interrupt is used to wake up and read the two bytes of
// the TMP100 temperature register every 62ms. If the temperature is greater
// than 28C, P1.0 is set, else reset. CPU is operated in LPM0. I2C speed
// is ~100kHz.
// ACLK = n/a, MCLK = SMCLK = TACLK = BRCLK = default DCO = ~1.2MHz
//

I built up the same circuit where 2 10k pull ups on SDA and SCL, changed the slave address to either 0x69 or 0x68 which is the gyro address given in the user guide of the device. Since i did not built up any monitoring yet, i used an oscilloscope to check out the pulses on SCL and SDA. I didn't expect to see anything on SDA yet but what i am wondering is why i can't even see any clock cycle on SCL bus. It is either always on 3.3V (MSP internal vcc) or sometimes, its near 1V (0.80~). Even when i remove the gyroscope, SDA and SCL bus, i can't see any pulses on P1.6 port. Any ideas?
