[Coco] I2C - Is it possible?

[T. Franklin]

I, for one, would see no problem with doing this on a CoCo.I2C is a "synchronous" transmission (i.e. has a clock signal), whichmeans that the timing is less critical than if it were asynchronous. I've doneonly one I2C design in the past and found it to be very forgiving. But it is aserial interface, which means that there are inherent delays that could hamperour dated CoCo.
