Notice: These device addresses are used for writing to the respective device, for reading bit0 must be set (see I2C protocol). Thus, the actual device address is >> 1.

0x20 s wo System power control:
 bit0: power off
 bit1: reboot (unused?)
 bit2: reboot (used by mcu sysmodule and LgyBg)
 bit3: used by LgyBg to power off, causes hangs in 3DS-mode

 bit1: push to LCDs
 bit2: bottom screen backlight off

 bit5: top screen backlight on
0x23 s ro(?) ?
0x24 s ?? Watchdog timer. This must be set *before* the timer is triggered, otherwise the old value is used. Value zero disables the watchdog.
0x25 s rw ?

0x2C s rw 3D LED state, capped at 0x0F
0x2D 0x64 wo This is used for controlling the notification LED (see MCURTC:SetInfoLEDPatternHeader as well), when this register is written. It's possible to write data here with size less than 0x64, and only that portion of the pattern data will get overwritten. Reading from this register only returns zeroes, so it's considered write-only. Writing past the size of this register seems to do nothing.
0x2E s ro This returns the notification LED status when read (1 means new cycle started)
0x2F s ro(?) ?
0x30

- 0x37

s rw RTC time (system clock). 7 bytes are read from this. The upper nibble of each byte encodes 10s (BCD), so each byte is post-processed with (byte & 0xF) + (10 * (byte >> 4)).
 byte 0: seconds
 byte 1: minutes
 byte 2: hours
 byte 3: current day of the week (unused)
 byte 4: days
 byte 5: months

s rw RTC alarm registers

Register 0x3B could be used to upload MCU firmware if some conditions are met.

0x3D

0x3E

s (2) ro RTC tick counter (resets to 0 when the seconds increase)

0x50 s rw ???
0x51 s rw ???
0x52

- 0x57

s rw ?
0x58 s rw DSP volume slider 0% volume offset (setting this to 0xFF will esentially mute the DSP as it's the volume slider's maximum raw value)
0x59 s rw DSP volume slider 100% volume offset (setting both this and the above to 0 will disable the volume slider with 100% volume, setting this to a lower value than the above will make the volume slider have only 2 states; on and off)
0x5A s rw ?
0x5B

- 0x5F

s ro(?) ? (these seem to be invalid regsiters)
0x60 ds(1) ro

first byte is wo

Looping queue register

Writing to first byte resets the queue position to the nth element Reading from this register causes the values to shift up by `readsize-1`(needs confirmation) bytes after returning `readsize-1` bytes from the top of the stack (first byte is read-only, so is always zero)

0x61 ds(0x100) rw Writing to this register pushes values on top of register 0x60's stack. Reading from this register doesn't advance the stack.

The first byte is used to store flags for managing FIRM/NS state - bit0 = "WirelessDisabled", bit1 = "SoftwareClosed", bit2 = "PowerOffInitiated", bit4 = "LegacyJumpProhibited". This register survives power-off, but does not seem to be saved to non-volatile storage (does not survive battery pulls). This register doesn't seem to actually control MCU behaviour by itself, it just seems to be used for storing arbitrary data.

0x62 - 0x7E s invalid (ro) These registers don't exist at all, thus reading them will yield 0xFF
0x7F 19(?) ro Various system state information.
 byte 06: battery related? (seems to decrease while charging and increase while discharging)
 byte 09: system model (see Cfg:GetSystemModel for values)
 byte 10: power LED related? 0 is off, 1 is red
 byte 13: RGB LED red intensity
 byte 14: RGB LED green intensity
 byte 15: RGB LED blue intensity
 byte 17: WiFi LED brightness
 byte 18: raw button states?
   bit0: unset while power button is held
   bit1: unset while home button is held
   bit2: unset while Wifi slider is held
   bit5: unset while the charging LED is active
   bit6: unset while charger is plugged in
   
   this byte is reset to 0 before an svcBreak takes effect
0x80

- 0xFF

s invalid (ro) These registers don't exist at all, thus reading them will yield 0xFF

Note: the letter "s" in the size field means that the given register is in a "shared register pool", meaning if you read/write with size more than 1 you can read the next `readamount-1` of shared registers. It's possible to corrupt the shared value of a "non-shared" register by writing into a shared register with a size bigger than one. Writing more than 0x100 bytes into a shared register will corrupt all writable registers, including the shared portion of "non-shared" registers.

Non-shared register: it's a register separate from the shared register pool. Messing with these registers will not affect the shared register pool at all.

0x70 0xE 0x1 IOControl
0x78 0xF 0x1 EFCR

See the datasheet linked to on the Hardware page for reference. From that datasheet, for the structure of the I2C register address u8: "Bit 0 is not used, bits 2:1 select the channel, bits 6:3 select one of the UART internal registers. Bit 7 is not used with the I2C-bus interface, but it is used by the SPI interface to indicate a read or a write operation."

Device 14

Used by Cfg-sysmodule via the i2c::EEP service. This is presumably EEPROM going by the service name.

The Cfg-module code which loads the CCAL(nandro:/sys/{HWCAL0.dat/HWCAL1.dat}) file from NAND will load it from I2C instead, if a certain state flag is non-zero. Likewise for the function which writes CCAL to NAND. HMAC/hash verification after loading is skipped when the CCAL was loaded from I2C.

Device 15

This the New3DS NFC controller "I2C" interface. This device is accessed via the WriteDeviceRaw/ReadDeviceRaw I2C service commands.

Since the *Raw commands are used with this, this device has no I2C registers. Instead, raw data is transfered after the I2C device is selected. Hence, WriteDeviceRaw is used for sending commands to the controller, while ReadDeviceRaw is for receiving responses from the controller. Certain commands may return multiple command responses.

Command request / response structure:

Offset Size Description
0x0 0x1 Normally 0x10?
0x1 0x1 Command source / destination.
0x2 0x1 CmdID
0x3 0x1 Payload size.

Following the above header is the payload data(when payload size is non-zero), with the size specified in the header. The command response payload is usually at least 1-byte, where that byte appears to be normally 0x0. For command requests the payload data is the command parameters.

For command requests sent to the NFC tag itself, Cmd[1]=0x0 and CmdID=0x0. The command request payload data here is the actual command request data for the NFC tag, starting with the CmdID u8 at payload+0.

During NFC module startup, a certain command is sent to the controller which eventually(after various cmd-reply headers etc) returns the following the payload after the first byte in the payload:

000000: 44 65 63 20 32 32 20 32 30 31 32 31 34 3a 35 33  Dec 22 201214:53 
000010: 3a 35 30 01 05 0d 46 05 1b 79 20 07 32 30 37 39  :50...F..y .2079
000020: 31 42 35                                         1B5

Or that is: "Dec 22 201214:53:50<binary>20791B5". Therefore, this appears to return the part-number of the NFC controller(other command request(s) / response(s) use this part-number value too).

NFC controller commands

CmdRequest[1] CmdID Payload data for parameters Description
0x2E 0x2F Firmware image for this chunk, size varies. This is used during NFC module startup to upload the firmware image to the NFC controller. This is used repeatedly to upload multiple chunks of the image.
