Hi,
I am trying to probe the I2C communication between MSP-EXP430F5529 and MSP-EXP430FR5739,
The I2C communication is working very well between these two msp controllers. But the problem is when I try to interface MSP-EXP430F5529 with an RTC (DS1337) the communication is not happening.
So using the oscilloscope, I wanted to probe the I2C lines for the first case (i,e between MSP-EXP430F5529 and MSP-EXP430FR5739) to confirm the data transaction and then to try it over the second case (between MSP-EXP430F5529 and DS1337). But there is a strange problem here, If I am probing only SDA line I am able to capture the data signal on CRO, but when I start probing the SCL line the communication stops and I have to restart the board.
I am using 10k of pullup resistors for the I2C lines. and the CRO I am using is Hantek's PC-oscilloscope (DSO-2090 USB).
SInce to analyze the I2C data I need both data as well as clock lines signal, probing only SDA is like of no use :(.
Please let me know what could be the reason that SCL probing is causing failure.
