PPS module and touchscreen

[BruderTom]

I try to use a PPS 13.2 module with a CoreS3-SE and want to adjust its output voltage via touchscreen. I use C++ in platformIO. I can get the PPS to work properly and I can get the touchscreen to work, but I can't do both together. I tried many different ways. For reference I tried this simplified code:

#include <M5Unified.h>
#include "M5ModulePPS.h"

M5GFX display;
M5ModulePPS pps;

void setup() {
  M5.begin();
  // Button zeichnen
  M5.Display.fillScreen(TFT_BLACK);
  M5.Display.fillRoundRect(60, 80, 200, 120, 15, TFT_BLUE);


  while (!pps.begin(&Wire, M5.In_I2C.getSDA(), M5.In_I2C.getSCL(), MODULE_POWER_ADDR, 1000000U));

  pps.setOutputVoltage(1.0);
  pps.setOutputCurrent(0.5);
  pps.setPowerEnable(true);
}

void loop() {
  uint32_t ms = millis();
  static uint32_t last_ms = ms;
  static float OutputVoltage = 1.0;

  M5.update();
  if (M5.Touch.getCount() > 0) {
    auto t = M5.Touch.getDetail();
    if (t.x>=60 && t.x<=260 && t.y>=80 && t.y<=200) {
      M5.Display.fillScreen(TFT_BLACK);
      M5.Display.fillRoundRect(60, 80, 200, 120, 15, TFT_RED);
      pps.setOutputVoltage(0);
    }
  }
  if(ms-last_ms>1000)
  {
    OutputVoltage += 0.1;
    pps.setOutputVoltage(OutputVoltage);
    last_ms = ms;
  }
}

The touch works (although laggy), but the PPS doesn't update its output voltage. If I remove the line M5.update(); the PPS works but obviously the touch doesn't. The PPS program in the M5Burner works (although also laggy) so it should be possible somehow.

Hello @BruderTom

the issue seems to be an I2C conflict. Internal I2C already uses Wire1; the PPS code initializes a second I2C instance (Wire) with the same GPIOs for SDA and SCL. The result is: both I2C instances (Wire and Wire1) fight against each other.

Try replacing below line so the correct Wire1 instance is used for PPS as well:

//  while (!pps.begin(&Wire, M5.In_I2C.getSDA(), M5.In_I2C.getSCL(), MODULE_POWER_ADDR, 1000000U));
  while (!pps.begin((M5.In_I2C.getPort() == I2C_NUM_1) ? &Wire1 : &Wire, M5.In_I2C.getSDA(), M5.In_I2C.getSCL(), MODULE_POWER_ADDR, 1000000U));

Thanks
Felix

@felmue That did it! Thanks a lot!
