Two 7-bit slave addresses (0111100 and 0111101) are
reserved for both the PCF8578 and PCF8579. The least
significant bit of the slave address is set by connecting
input SA0 to either 0 (V

All communications are initiated with a start condition (S)
from the I
slave address and read/write bit. All devices with this slave
address acknowledge in parallel. All other devices ignore
the bus transfer.
In WRITE mode (indicated by setting the read/write bit
LOW) one or more commands follow the slave address
acknowledgement. The commands are also
acknowledged by all addressed devices on the bus.
The last command must clear the continuation bit C.
After the last command a series of data bytes may follow.
The acknowledgement after each byte is made only by the
(A0, A1, A2 and A3) addressed PCF8579 or PCF8578
with its implicit subaddress 0. After the last data byte
has been acknowledged, the I

In READ mode, indicated by setting the read/write bit
HIGH, data bytes may be read from the RAM following the
slave address acknowledgement. After this
acknowledgement the master transmitter becomes a
master receiver and the PCF8578 becomes a slave
transmitter. The master receiver must acknowledge the
reception of each byte in turn. The master receiver must
signal an end of data to the slave transmitter, by not
generating an acknowledge on the last byte clocked out of
the slave. The slave transmitter then leaves the data line
HIGH, enabling the master to generate a stop condition
(P).
Display bytes are written into, or read from, the RAM at the
address specified by the data pointer and subaddress
counter. Both the data pointer and subaddress counter are
automatically incremented, enabling a stream of data to be
transferred either to, or from, the intended devices.
In multiple device applications, the hardware subaddress
pins of the PCF8579s (A0 to A3) are connected to V
