Programming (continued)

The host controller implements a two-terminal serial interface with one clock signal (SCL) and one data signal

(SDA). The SCL signal is a unidirectional output from the host controller and the SDA signal is bidirectional. Both

are open-drain signals and require pullup resistors. The host controller is a bus master device and drives SCL at

approximately 60 kHz during data transfers and places SCL in a high-impedance state (0 frequency) during bus

idle states. The serial EEPROM is a bus slave device and must acknowledge a slave address equal to A0h.

Figure 2 illustrates an example application implementing the two-wire serial bus.

7.4.1.2 Serial-Bus Interface Protocol

All data transfers are initiated by the serial-bus master. The beginning of a data transfer is indicated by a start

condition, which is signaled when the SDA line transitions to the low state while SCL is in the high state, as

illustrated in Figure 3. The end of a requested data transfer is indicated by a stop condition, which is signaled by

a low-to-high transition of SDA while SCL is in the high state, as shown in Figure 3. Data on SDA must remain

stable during the high state of the SCL signal, as changes on the SDA signal during the high state of SCL are

interpreted as control signals, that is, a start or stop condition.

Figure 3. Serial-Bus Start and Stop Conditions and Bit Transfers

Data is transferred serially in 8-bit bytes. During a data transfer operation, the exact number of bytes that are

transmitted is unlimited. However, each byte must be followed by an acknowledge bit to continue the data

transfer operation. An acknowledge (ACK) is indicated by the data byte receiver pulling the SDA signal low, so

that it remains low during the high state of the SCL signal. Figure 4 illustrates the acknowledge protocol.
