The I
line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). Both lines must be connected to a positive supply via a pull-up resistor. Data
transfer may be initiated only when the bus is not busy.
8.1
One data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The data on the SDA line must remain stable during the HIGH period
of the clock pulse as changes in the data line at this time will be interpreted as a control signal.
8.2
Both data and clock lines remain HIGH when the bus is not busy. A HIGH-to-LOW transition of the data line, while the
clock is HIGH, is defined as the start condition (S). A LOW-to-HIGH transition of the data line while the clock is HIGH, is
defined as the stop condition (P).
