X24C08
lected, the X24C08 will respond with an acknowledge after
the receipt of each subsequent eight bit word.
In the read mode the X24C08 will transmit eight bits of data,
release the SDA line and monitor the line for an
acknowledge. If an acknowledge is detected and no stop
condition is generated by the master, the X24C08
will continue to transmit data. If an acknowledge is not
detected, the X24C08 will terminate further data trans-
missions. The master must then issue a stop condition to
return the X24C08 to the standby power mode and
Acknowledge
Acknowledge is a software convention used to indicate
successful data transfers. The transmitting device will
release the bus after transmitting eight bits. During the ninth
clock cycle the receiver will pull the SDA line LOW
to acknowledge that it received the eight bits of data.
Refer to Figure 3.
The X24C08 will respond with an acknowledge after
recognition of a start condition and its slave address. If
both the device and a write operation have been se-
place the device into a known state.
