Stop Condition. STOP is identified by a low to high

transition of the SDA line while the clock SCL is

stable in the high state. A STOP condition termi-

nates communication between the ST24/25x16

and the bus master. A STOP condition at the end

of a Read command forces the standby state. A

STOP condition at the end of a Write command

triggers the internal EEPROM write cycle.

Acknowledge Bit (ACK). An acknowledge signal

is used to indicate a successful data transfer. The

bus transmitter, either master or slave, will release

the SDA bus after sending 8 bits of data. During the

9th clock pulse period the receiver pulls the SDA

bus low to acknowledge the receipt of the 8 bits of

data.

Data Input. During data input the ST24/25x16

samples the SDA bus signal on the rising edge of

the clock SCL. Note that for correct device opera-

tion the SDA signal must be stable during the clock

low to high transition and the data must change

ONLY when the SCL line is low.

Memory Addressing. To start communication be-

tween the bus master and the slave ST24/25x16,

the master must initiate a START condition. The 8

bits sent after a START condition are made up of a

device select of 4 bits that identifie the device type

(1010), 3 Block select bits and one bit for a READ

(RW = 1) or WRITE (RW = 0) operation.

There are three modes both for read and write.

They are summarised in Table 4 and described

hereafter. A communication between the master

and the slave is ended with a STOP condition.
