The state of the data line represents valid data when,
after a Start condition, the data line is stable for the
duration of the high period of the clock signal.
The data on the line must be changed during the low
period of the clock signal. There is one clock pulse per
bit of data.
Each data transfer is initiated with a Start condition and
terminated with a Stop condition. The number of the
data bytes transferred between the Start and Stop
conditions is determined by the master device and is
theoretically unlimited, although only the last eight will
be stored when doing a write operation. When an
overwrite does occur, it will replace data in a first-in
first-out (FIFO) fashion.

Once switched into Bidirectional mode,
the 24LCS21 will remain in that mode
until power goes away. Removing power
is the only way to reset the 24LCS21 into
the Transmit-Only mode.

3.1.5
Each receiving device, when addressed, is obliged to
generate an acknowledge after the reception of each
byte. The master device must generate an extra clock
pulse which is associated with this Acknowledge bit.
The device that acknowledges has to pull down the
SDA line during the acknowledge clock pulse in such a
way that the SDA line is stable low during the high
period of the acknowledge related clock pulse.
course, setup and hold times must be taken into
account. A master must signal an end of data to the
slave by not generating an Acknowledge bit on the last
byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In this
case, the slave must leave the data line high to enable
the master to generate the Stop condition.
