FDC2212: IC doesn't respond to I2C scanner code of Arduino

Part Number: FDC2212
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: FDC2214

Dear fellows,

As i am new to this IC. i used different codes with arduino suggested in this forum earlier for communication and use of registers of FDC2212 and FDC2214. but right now i am getting 0 value from channels and when i dig out the problem it seems that there is no communication between the IC and Arduino Nano. i have few questions here:

1) i connected SDA, SCL , GND and 3.3V pins of both IC and Arduino. I also used 4.7K pullup resistors. Is there any other hardware component or wiring connection i need to ignite the I2C communication among them?

2) I am using arduino code for detection of  I2C address of components. this code is working fine with other components but it is not working with fdc2212. is there any special trick or treatment for this IC or might be my hardware ic soldering has some issues as its a wosn package?

3) or anyother working code to check communication between FDC2212 or FDC2214 and Arduino, so that i should reach at conclusion that where is the fault?

thanks,

cheers
