Hi:

Just a quick thanks for I2CU.  It has solved a major issue I was having.  In moving my code for my I2C display from my Arduino to the mbed, the one thing I was certain of was that the address of my display was 0x28.  I can confirm it with a Diolan tester I have that shows what addresses are on the bus.

The issue is that the Diolan and the Arduino use a 7 bit scheme with bit 0 being changed for read /write.  This is different than the product documentation which indicates an 8 bit scheme.  That makes the address 0x50.

I2CU sees the display and reports it as 0x50.  Once I changed the address the display came on line.

I really appreciate utilities like that!!!

Thanks

Tim
