Byte format and acknowledge

Every byte put on the SDA line must be 8 bits long, and be followed by an acknowledge bit

to indicate a successful data transfer. Data is transferred with the most significant bit (MSB)

first. The transmitter releases the SDA line after sending 8 bits of data. During the 9th clock

pulse, the receiver pulls the SDA line low to acknowledge the receipt of 8 bits of data.

Device addressing

The master must first initiate with a START condition to communicate with the STW81101,

and then send 8 bits (MSB first) on the SDA line which correspond to the device select

address and the read or write mode.

The first 7 MSBs are the device address identifier, which corresponds to the I2C bus

definition. For the STW81101, the address is set at “1100A2A1A0”, 3 bits programmable.

The 8th bit (LSB) is the read or write (RW) operation bit, which is set to 1 in read mode and

to 0 in write mode.

Following a START condition, the STW81103 identifies the device address on the bus and, if

matched, acknowledges the identification on the SDA bus during the 9th clock pulse.
