Philo, Stef, Ralph ... this is a call for help. We want to implement a simple
I2C bus to have at least 50kHz that we need to access our camera module.

You could probably succeed in doing that - but why?  The RCX doesn't have
enough memory to load even a single photo and it's teeny-tiny 8 bit CPU
will take an ETERNITY to process whatever it can get at.

Unless you have a very strange application in mind, you're going to need a
better computer than the RCX.

Because we are in an educational environment, where the bulk is to teach how to program micro-controllers with the background thought that if the students learn (...)
