START and STOP Conditions
A master device initiates communication by issuing a
START condition, a high-to-low transition on SDA with SCL
high (Figure 2). The master terminates transmission by a
STOP condition (see the
Acknowledge Bit (ACK) and Not-
Acknowledge Bit (NACK)
section). A STOP condition is a
low-to-high transition on SDA while SCL is high (Figure 2).
The STOP condition frees the bus. If a repeated START
condition is generated instead of a STOP condition, the
bus remains active. When a STOP condition or incorrect
address is detected, the MAX7469/
MAX7470 then ignore all communication on the I
2
C bus
until the next START or REPEATED START condition,
minimizing digital noise and feedthrough.
Early STOP Conditions
The MAX7469/MAX7470 recognize a STOP condition at
any point during transmission except when a STOP
condition occurs in the same high pulse as a START
condition (Figure 3). This condition is not a legal I
2
C for-
mat; at least one clock pulse must separate any START
and STOP conditions. The MAX7469/MAX7470 discard
any data received during a data transfer aborted by an
early STOP condition.
Repeated START (S
r
) Conditions
An Sr condition is used to indicate a change in direc-
tion of data flow (see the
Read Cycle
section). Sr can
also be used when the bus master is writing to several
I
2
C devices and does not want to relinquish control of
the bus. The MAX7469/MAX7470 serial interface sup-
ports continuous write operations with (or without) an Sr
condition separating them.
