Data Transfer on I C Serial Bus
Depending upon the state of the R/W bit, two types of data
transfer are possible:
the direction bit (R/W), which is 0 for a write. After receiving
and decoding the slave address byte the slave outputs an
acknowledge on the SDA line. After the IDT5P90005C
acknowledges the slave address + write bit, the master
transmits a register address to the IDT5P90005C. This sets
the register pointer on the IDT5P90005C, with the
IDT5P90005C acknowledging the transfer. The master may
then transmit zero or more bytes of data, with the
IDT5P90005C acknowledging each byte received. The
address pointer increments after each data byte is transferred.
The master generates a STOP condition to terminate the data
write.
1) Data transfer from a master transmitter to a slave
receiver. The first byte transmitted by the master is the slave
address. Next follows a number of data bytes. The slave
returns an acknowledge bit after each received byte. Data is
transferred with the most significant bit (MSB) first.
2) Data transfer from a slave transmitter to a master
receiver. The first byte (the slave address) is transmitted by
the master. The slave then returns an acknowledge bit. This is
followed by the slave transmitting a number of data bytes. The
master returns an acknowledge bit after all received bytes
other than the last byte. At the end of the last received byte, a
“not acknowledge” is returned. The master device generates
all of the serial clock pulses and the START and STOP
conditions. A transfer is ended with a STOP condition or with
a repeated START condition. Since a repeated START
condition is also the beginning of the next serial transfer, the
bus is not released. Data is transferred with the most
significant bit (MSB) first.
2) Slave Transmitter Mode (Read Mode): The first byte is
received and handled as in the slave receiver mode. However,
in this mode, the direction bit indicates that the transfer
direction is reversed. Serial data is transmitted on SDA by the
IDT5P90005C while the serial clock is input on SCL. START
and STOP conditions are recognized as the beginning and
end of a serial transfer (see the “Data Read–Slave Transmitter
Mode” figure). The slave address byte is the first byte received
after the START condition is generated by the master. The
slave address byte contains the 7-bit IDT5P90005C address,
which is 1101000, followed by the direction bit (R/W), which is
1 for a read. After receiving and decoding the slave address
byte the slave outputs an acknowledge on the SDA line. The
IDT5P90005C then begins to transmit data starting with the
register address pointed to by the register pointer. If the
register pointer is not written to before the initiation of a read
mode the first address that is read is the last one stored in the
register pointer. The address pointer is incremented after each
byte is transferred. The IDT5P90005C must receive a “not
acknowledge” to end a read.
The IDT5P90005C can operate in the following two modes:
1) Slave Receiver Mode (Write Mode): Serial data and clock
are received through SDA and SCL. After each byte is
received an acknowledge bit is transmitted. START and STOP
conditions are recognized as the beginning and end of a serial
transfer. Address recognition is performed by hardware after
reception of the slave address and direction bit (see the “Data
Write–Slave Receiver Mode” figure). The slave address byte
is the first byte received after the START condition is
generated by the master. The slave address byte contains the
7-bit IDT5P90005C address, which is 1101000, followed by
