Legal Notes and Copyrights

The use and manufacturing of I2C devices is subject to a copyright and patents from Philips.

This means that you (as a semiconductor manufacturer or system developer) need to purchase a license from Philips to use I2C technology in your system.

However, if you buy components which carry the I2C logo from Philips or another manufacturer then you immediately have the license to use these components.

For further legal information about this please contact your local Philips representative.

Standard Philips Copyright notice :

"Purchase of Philips I2C components conveys a license under the Philips I2C patent to use the components in the I2C system, provided the system conforms to the I2C specifications defined by Philips."
