Jim,

The configuration consists of a Tern V104 SBC acting as the i2c bus master (bit
banging software) and 3 PIC16C74 acting as i2c bus slaves.

The master polls the slaves every 300 msec. The master also sends a command to
the slaves occasionally ( less than 1 per hour).The error occurs about once
every 24 hours.

       Hello,

       Which devices are you using?  I had an experience with a RTC
       chip from Dallas Semi' that had a bug in the I2C (DS137x
       something?).
