TMS320DM6437: i2c SCLK remains always low and SDA is always high.

Hi Ateequeur,

I would suggest you to check your I2C pinmux, clock and power configuration. Refer to the below pointers for details:

DM6437 datasheet (tms320dm6437.pdf)

Table 2-22. I2C Terminal Functions
6.3.4 DM6437 Power and Clock Domains - check PLLC1 settings are correct
6.3.5 Power and Sleep Controller (PSC) - check registers MDSTAT18 and MDCTL18
6.12 Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C)

1. board is having 27 MHz oscillator.
2. after PLL initialization

CKSTAT 0x00000009 PLLDIV Ratio Change Status Register [Memory Mapped]
SYSTAT 0x00000003 PLLDIV Ratio Change Status Register [Memory Mapped]

divisor values are also properly selected.(0.2.5)

3. after PSC initialization
MDSTAT18 values:
EMUIHB 0
EMURST 0
MCKOUT 1
MRST 1
LRSTDONE 1
LRST 0
STATE 000011

MDCTL18 value:
_RESV 000000000000000000000 Reserved
EMUIHBIE 0
EMURSTIE 0
LRST 0
_RESV 00000 Reserved
NEXT 011 Module Next State

4. After I2C Initialization:
ICOAR 0x00000000 I2C Own Address Register [Memory Mapped]
ICIMR 0x00000000 I2C Interrupt Mask Register [Memory Mapped]
ICSTR 0x00001410 I2C Interrupt Status Register [Memory Mapped]
ICCLKL 0x00000028 I2C Clock Divider Low Register [Memory Mapped]

ICMDR 0x00000020 I2C Mode Register [Memory Mapped]
ICIVR 0x00000000 I2C Interrupt Vector Register [Memory Mapped]
ICEMDR 0x00000001 I2C Extended Mode Register [Memory Mapped]
ICPSC 0x00000002 I2C Prescaler Register [Memory Mapped]
ICPID1 0x00000106 I2C Peripheral ID Register 1 [Memory Mapped]
ICPID2 0x00000005 I2C Peripheral ID Register 2 [Memory Mapped]

from all the register values it looks like initialization is done right.

what else could be the problem??

whether sclk remains low after reset/ power on with bootloader mode set to 0??

ICMDR 0x00000020 I2C Mode Register [Memory Mapped]

ICMDR[10] MST = 0, this means DM64x I2C module is in slave mode. In I2C slave mode, this SCL pin is an input. PLL1 values and I2C module prescaler and divider values takes effect on SCL line only when DM64x I2C module is master. When DM64x I2C module is slave, it is waiting for clock to be generated and supplied on SCL pin by the external I2C chip (which is master).

For more info, check below sections of I2C user guide.
