Master Transmitter Writing to a Slave Receiver (DAC8574) in HS Mode

DAC8574

SLAS377B – JANUARY 2003 – REVISED DECEMBER 2004

When writing data to the DAC8574 in HS-mode, the master begins to transmit what is called the HS-Master

Code (0000 1XXX) in F/S-mode. No device is allowed to acknowledge the HS-Master Code, so the HS-Master

Code is followed by a NOT acknowledge.

The master then switches to HS-mode and issues a repeated start condition, followed by the address byte (with

R/W = 0) after which the DAC8574 acknowledges by pulling SDA low. This address byte is usually followed by

the control byte, which is also acknowledged by the DAC8574. The LSB of the control byte (PD0-Bit) determines

if the following data is power-down data or regular data.

With (PD0-Bit = 0) the DAC8574 expects to receive data in the following sequence HIGH-BYTE – LOW-BYTE –

HIGH-BYTE – LOW-BYTE...., until a STOP condition or repeated start condition on the I

(refer to Table 5 HS-MODE WRITE SEQUENCE - DATA).

With (PD0-Bit = 1) the DAC8574 expects to receive 2 bytes of power-down data (refer to Table 5 HS-MODE

WRITE SEQUENCE - POWER DOWN).

Done

(1)

Use repeated start to secure bus operation and loop back to the stage of write addressing for next Write.

(2)

Once DAC8574 is properly addressed and control byte is sent, high-byte-low-byte sequences can repeat until a stop or repeated start

condition is received.
