Registers

NAME ADDRESS WIDTH
REG_I2CDATA 0x04004500 1
REG_I2CCNT 0x04004501 1

REG_I2CDATA

BIT DESCRIPTION
0 R/W, clear for write, set for read
1 Start/device select bit?
2 Restart/device reselect bit?
3 ?
4 SCL hold. When clear SCL is being held low, set when SCL is high. This bit must always be set after writing REG_I2CCNT.
5 SCL, toggle this for each loop iteration(in the loop execute the I2C WR code) with max 8 iterations where the loop exits successfully when bit 4 is set.
6 Unknown, always set when writing to CNT?
7 Enable/busy

Protocol

Wait for the busy bit to clear. Write the device address to REG_I2CDATA, then write 0xc2(busy/enable, bit 6, and start bit 1 set) to REG_I2CCNT. Execute swiWaitByLoop for a device-specific duration, then write the register address to REG_I2CDATA, and write 0xc0 to REG_I2CCNT.(busy/enable and bit 6 set) Wait with swiWaitByLoop device duration, then write the data to REG_I2CDATA when writing. When reading, write the device address to REG_I2CDATA and write 0xc2 to REG_I2CCNT. When the delay value is zero, write 0xc1 | i<<5 to REG_I2CCNT, otherwise write 0xc0 | i<<5 to REG_I2CCNT, wait for busy to clear, delay, then write 0xc5 to REG_I2CCNT. For writing i is the loop i for iteration, for reading replace that with 1. When reading, read the data from REG_I2CCNT. Return a error if REG_I2CCNT bit 4 SCL hold is set, otherwise return normal.

I2C devices

These addresses are currently only indexes into the I2C device table for addresses etc that Nintendo uses.

Power management index addr 0x4

When registers 0x70 and 0x11 are set to 1 in that order, a power cycle is done.

REGISTER DESCRIPTION
0x11 System reset register 2.
0x31 Camera related? Values can be 1 or 2. Probably either turns the cameras' power on/off, or sets which camera to use?(internal/external cameras.)
0x70 System reset register 1.
