i2c protocol

[TucsonDon]

I am using MPLab X with XC8 to write programs for a PIC18F46K22 & PIC18F45K22 to communicate via i2c with the PIC18F46K22 the master. When I send a write command from the master do I need to use the physical (Hex) memory address or will the compiler convert from the alias? Do I need to build the slave first and then define the address in a header for the master?

yes, the slave defines its own address

yes, the slave defines its own address

I was asking about memory address not device address

 

[Dr_Doggy]

afaik there is only the device address that is required ... the only thing i can think that would need to be pulled from memory(in host) is the device address or maybe the data you are sending
