X24022
Sequential Read
Sequential Read can be initiated as either a current
address read or random access read. The first word is
transmitted as with the other modes, however, the
master now responds with an acknowledge, indicating it
requires additional data. The X24022 continues to out-
put data for each acknowledge received. The read
operation is terminated by the master, by not responding
with an acknowledge and by issuing a stop condition.

The data output is sequential, with the data from address
n followed by the data from n + 1. The address counter
for read operations increments all address bits, allowing
the entire memory contents to be serially read during
one operation. At the end of the address space (address
255), the counter “rolls over” to address 0 and the
X24022 continues to output data for each acknowledge
received. Refer to Figure 9 for the address, acknowl-
edge and data transfer sequence.
