In my system, I am using I2C and I realize under heavy interrupt load (from other sources), I2C communication is easily disrupted. Is this expected behavior for I2C? I would have expected despite interrupt load, it would still be ok since I2C is not exactly a time critical interface, clock is provided with data.
Update:
The processor is STM32. The interrupts are due to ADC, I cannot disable interrupts during the read events therefore I must find a solution where I can make the i2c communication more stable. The STM32 is master and the slave is another device (accelerometer).
Update2:
When I connect a logic analyzer to the clock with a small flying cable, the problem disappears. Interestingly, there is no interrupt load, read write works well, when there is interrupt load, they don't. However, if I attach the probe to the clock, read write works under interrupt load as well. I think, there is a capacitance issue somewhere.
