Abstract

An I2C wake-up circuit, method and electronic device are disclosed. The I2C wake-up circuit includes: a clock wake-up circuit, configured to send a clock wake-up signal to a clock circuit in response to detecting a start signal on a serial clock line SCL and a serial data line SDA; and a signal hold circuit, configured to hold the serial data line SDA in a state of not transmitting address information until a clock signal sent by the clock circuit that is wake-up is received. The present I2C wake-up solution can realize normal data reception through a simple hardware circuit without a specific address wake-up and maximize power saving by turning on the clock when there is access and turning off the clock when the access ends.
