Workarounds for 32 byte I2C block size limitation dictated by SMBus
Hello,
I am reading i2c data from my custom device as:
status = bus.read_i2c_block_data(0x3C, 0xA0, STATUS_BUFFER_SIZE)
Where 0x3c is the address, and 0xa0 is the offset.
I needed to read 64 bytes, and discovered the 32 bytes block size limit, so:
status64 = i2c_msg.read(0x3C, STATUS_BUFFER_SIZE) but this omits the offset.
how can I make > 32bytes reads by using i2c_msg and still be able to use this offset.
Best Regards, C.
