# I2C

This is a class to control M5Stack's Grove-A port (I2C).
I2C communication needs to be initialized in advance by M5.Begin().

**Function return value**

| Value |Description |
| --- | --- |
|true|Write success|
|false|Write failure|

## readByte()

**Syntax:**
` bool readByte(uint8_t address, uint8_t *result);`

**Function argument**

| Function argument |Type |Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| address | <code>uint8_t</code> |Slave Address |
| result | <code>uint8_t *</code> | stored memory |

**Function return value**

| Value |Description |
| --- | --- |
|true|Read success|
|false|Read failure|


## readByte()

**Syntax:**
`bool readByte(uint8_t address, uint8_t subAddress,uint8_t *result);`

**Description:**

Read from the specified address.
It is used when the data to be sent before reading is only the functional address and the response is 1 byte.

| address | <code>uint8_t</code> |Slave Address |
| subAddress | <code>uint8_t</code> |function address |
| result | <code>uint8_t *</code> |stored memory|

**Function return value**

| Value |Description |
| --- | --- |
|true|Read success|
|false|Read failure|


## readBytes()

**Syntax:**
`bool readBytes(uint8_t address, uint8_t count,uint8_t * dest);`

**Description:**

Read from the specified address.
Use when there is no data to send before reading and there are multiple responses.

**Function argument**

| --- | --- | --- |
| address | <code>uint8_t</code> |Slave Address |
| count | <code>uint8_t</code> | Length of request bytes |
| result | <code>uint8_t *</code> |stored memory|

**Function return value**

| Value |Description |
| --- | --- |
|true|Read success|
|false|Read failure|
