Hello,

Clock streching is used by slow slaves .. If your slave perform some calculations or other tasks with the recieved data on I2C it holds the clock low until finished proccesing the data (may be interrupt routine ). After releasing the clock the Master may send another byte of data .....

We found it necessary to reset the I2C (in order to clear the busy bit if I recall):

    g_pRCC->APB1ENR |= I2C1EN;

    g_pI2C1->CR1 = I2C_SWRST;

    g_pI2C1->CR1 = 0;

    g_pI2C1->CCR = I2C_CCR7 | I2C_CCR5;

    g_pI2C1->TRISE = 0X09;

    g_pI2C1->CR2 = I2C_FREQ5;

    g_pI2C1->CR1 = I2C_PE;

@Gregory, thanks for the clarification.

@Crossware, thanks for that, I shall implement that for if/when it gets stuck.

I found an error on the layout of the Atmel chip which seems to have helped a lot as well.
