which is a HIGH to LOW transition of SDA while SCL is HIGH. The

DCP continuously monitors the SDA and SCL lines for the START

condition and does not respond to any command until this

condition is met (see Figure 17). A START condition is ignored

during the power-up sequence and during internal non-volatile

write cycles.

is a LOW to HIGH transition of SDA while SCL is high (see

Figure 17). A STOP condition at the end of a read operation, or at

the end of a write operation to volatile bytes only places the

device in its standby mode. A STOP condition during a write

operation to a non-volatile write byte, initiates an internal

non-volatile write cycle. The device enters its standby state when

the internal non-volatile write cycle is completed.

An ACK (Acknowledge) is a software convention used to indicate

a successful data transfer. The transmitting device, either master

or slave, releases the SDA bus after transmitting eight bits.

During the ninth clock cycle, the receiver pulls the SDA line LOW

to acknowledge the reception of the eight bits of data (see

Figure 18).

The ISL97649A DCP responds with an ACK after recognition of a

START condition followed by a valid Identification Byte, and once

again after successful receipt of an Address Byte. The ISL97649A

also respond with an ACK after receiving a Data Byte of a write

operation. The master must respond with an ACK after receiving

a Data Byte of a read operation.

A valid Identification Byte contains 0101000 as the seven MSBs.

The LSB is in the Read/Write bit. Its value is "1" for a Read

operation, and "0" for a Write operation (see Table 7).

Write Operation

A write operation requires a START condition, followed by a valid

Identification Byte, a valid Address Byte, a Data Byte, and a STOP

condition (see Figure 19). After each of the three bytes, the

ISL97649A responds with an ACK. At this time, if the Data Byte is

to be written only to volatile registers, the device enters its

standby state. If the Data Byte is to be written also to non-volatile

memory, the ISL97649A begins its internal write cycle to

non-volatile memory. During the internal non-volatile write cycle,

the device ignores transitions at the SDA and SCL pins and the

SDA output is at high impedance state. When the internal

non-volatile write cycle is completed, the ISL97649A enters its

standby state. The byte at address 02h determines if the Data

Byte is to be written to volatile and/or non-volatile memory.

Data Protection

A STOP condition also acts as a protection of non-volatile

memory. A valid Identification Byte, Address Byte, and total

number of SCL pulses act as a protection of both volatile and

non-volatile registers. During a Write sequence, the Data Byte is

loaded into an internal shift register as it is received. If the

Address Byte is 0 or 2, the Data Byte is transferred to the Wiper

Register (WR) or to the Access Control Register respectively, at

the falling edge of the SCL pulse that loads the last bit (LSB) of

the Data Byte. If the Address Byte is 0, and the Access Control

Register is all zeros (default), then the STOP condition initiates

the internal write cycle to non-volatile memory.
