The Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) bus is a bidirectional, multi-master
bus using two signals (SCL = serial clock line, SDA = serial data line).
-There can be many devices on the same bus. Each device can potentially be
-master or slave (and that can change during runtime). Both slave and master
-can potentially play the transmitter or receiver role (this can also
-change at runtime).
-
-Possible maximum data rates:
- - Standard mode: 100 kbit/s
- - Fast mode: 400 kbit/s
- - Fast-mode Plus: 1 Mbit/s
- - High-speed mode: 3.4 Mbit/s
-
-START condition (S): SDA = falling, SCL = high
-Repeated START condition (Sr): same as S
-Data bit sampling: SCL = rising
-STOP condition (P): SDA = rising, SCL = high
-
-All data bytes on SDA are exactly 8 bits long (transmitted MSB-first).
-Each byte has to be followed by a 9th ACK/NACK bit. If that bit is low,
-that indicates an ACK, if it's high that indicates a NACK.
-
-After the first START condition, a master sends the device address of the
-slave it wants to talk to. Slave addresses are 7 bits long (MSB-first).
-After those 7 bits, a data direction bit is sent. If the bit is low that
-indicates a WRITE operation, if it's high that indicates a READ operation.
-
-Later an optional 10bit slave addressing scheme was added.
