Hello there;

I have simulated a module with an external temperature sensor(LM75). In 
the top Level module the port were defined as "inout" type something 
like this

1

      i2c_scl    : inout std_logic;

2

      i2c_sda    : inout std_logic;

3

      ….;

4

5

    achitecture behav of top_level is

6

7

    Signal i2c_scl_int    : std_logic;

8

    Signal i2c_sda_int    : std_logic;

9

    …. ;

10

begin

11

12

    i2c_scl <= '0' when i2c_scl_int ='0' else 'Z';

13

    i2c_sda <= '0' when i2c_sda_int ='0' else 'Z';

14

    … ;

15

end;

With the above Code my Output was "ZZ" every time and I have to modify 
the LM75 source Code as well as the i2c Controller Code to get a proper 
Output Signal.

I would like to know if there is any other Approach by not modifying the 
source Code and only add some Code in the testbench?

Thank you.

Independently from the i2c_scl_int and i2c_sda_int states?

Hello Lothar;

Thanks for your help. I do have a proper Output Signal now.

The Problem I am facing now is my i2c_sda Signal. It will start showing 
a proper waveform and later on just Change to "X" and some "H" and "0" 
and the waveform will get back to normal after some time.

Is there any way I can filter it to have a clean Signal?

many thanks
