Does anyone have any experience implementing an I2C bus master using a
PIC16C76 (or other similar chip)?  I'm trying to do this for a
one-master bus with an 24LC32A EEPROM as the only slave, and only
block-read and block-write required.  Microchip's AN554, "Software
Implementation of I2C Bus Master" talks generally but I'm not sure how
to solve this specific problem.  What kind of h/w on the PIC will be
used for the bus master -- how much RAM, how many temp variables,
etc.; will one or more real time clocks be needed?  Are interrupts
needed?  I'd rather run the master in the background if I could.

Many thanks for your time.
