Thanks for the link. It is what I observed from the datasheets that I have.
I just wondered if there was anything specific/subtle that I have to look
out for.

Once again uk.diy outperforms the proper newsgroup.

I think the real reason for the difference is to avoid the Philips
licensing charges on I2C bus. (also there is "TWI" (2 wire interface)
which seems to be identical to I2C)

Ordinarily I'd post a question like this to one of the electronics groups.
But I must admit that the contributors to uk.diy have such a wide range of
skills, that there probably isn't any point with the sci. groups ;-)

Thanks, but the question was largely rhetorical ...
