I

and acknowledge is always required after each byte. I

connecting with 2 communication lines; serial data (SDA) and serial clock (SCL).

Among the devices, there should be a “master” that generates clock and control communication start and end. The rest

become “slave” which is controlled by an address peculiar to each device like this EEPROM. The device that outputs

data to the bus during data communication is called “transmitter”, and the device that receives data is called “receiver”.

2.

Start Condition (Start Bit Recognition)

(1) Before executing each command, start condition (start bit) where SDA goes from 'HIGH' down to 'LOW' when SCL

is 'HIGH' is necessary.

(2) This IC always detects whether SDA and SCL are in start condition (start bit) or not, therefore, unless this condition

is satisfied, any command cannot be executed.

3.

(1) Each command can be ended by a stop condition (stop bit) where SDA goes from 'LOW' to 'HIGH' while SCL is

'HIGH'.

4.

Acknowledge (ACK) Signal

(1) This acknowledge (ACK) signal is a software rule to show whether data transfer has been made normally or not. In

a master and slave communication, the device (Ex. µ-COM sends slave address input for write or read command

to this IC) at the transmitter (sending) side releases the bus after output of 8bit data.

(2) The device (Ex. This IC receives the slave address input for write or read command from the µ-COM) at the

receiver (receiving) side sets SDA 'LOW' during the 9th clock cycle, and outputs acknowledge signal (ACK signal)

showing that it has received the 8bit data.

(3) This IC, after recognizing start condition and slave address (8bit), outputs acknowledge signal (ACK signal) 'LOW'.

(4) After receiving 8bit data (word address and write data) during each write operation, this IC outputs acknowledge

signal (ACK signal) 'LOW'.

(5) During read operation, this IC outputs 8bit data (read data), and detects acknowledge signal (ACK signal) 'LOW'.

When

acknowledge signal (ACK signal) is detected, and stop condition is not sent from the master (µ-COM) side,

this IC continues to output data. When acknowledge signal (ACK signal) is not detected, this IC stops data transfer,

recognizes stop condition (stop bit), and ends read operation. Then this IC becomes ready for another

transmission.

5.

Device Addressing

(1) Slave address comes after start condition from master.

(2) The significant 4 bits of slave address are used for recognizing a device type.

The device code of this IC is fixed to '1010'.

(3) Next slave addresses (P1, P0 --- page select) are for selecting page addresses.

(4) The most insignificant bit (

W

/

R

--- READ / WRITE ) of slave address is used for designating write or read

operation, and is as shown below.
