Description
### Description
Hi all,
I’d like to propose adding a glitch filter to the I²C IP core to improve noise robustness on the SCL and SDA inputs.
The idea is to place a small N-cycle stability check after the two-stage synchronizer so that short pulses (glitches) are ignored, while valid I²C transitions pass through.
The full draft RFC is here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/19hkUFaqMAJH2dpYH56lC1JZGZ3TkixecQj2qOuO8z58/edit?usp=sharing
I’d welcome feedback and guidance on whether this should be fixed-length or configurable, and any integration concerns.
Best regards,
Sohan Sai

Research direction
Start by reading the linked RFC and reviewing the I²C IP core’s SCL and SDA input path, especially the two-stage synchronizer. Determine whether the proposed N-cycle stability check should be fixed-length or configurable and identify integration concerns. The issue does not define an implementation target or tests, so completion depends on resolving the design questions first.
