1-5. The First Byte
The First Byte, which includes the Slave-address, is input after the Start condition is set, and a target IC
device that will be accessed on the bus is selected by the Slave-address.
The Slave-address is configured with the upper 7-bits and the data is “0010000”. When the
Slave-address is inputted, an external device that has the identical device address generates an
acknowledgement and instructions are then executed. The 8^th bit of the First Byte (lowest bit) is allocated
as the R/W Bit. When the R/W Bit is “1”, the read instruction is executed, and when it is “0”, the write
instruction is executed.
Note 52. In this document, there is a case that describes a “Write Slave-address assignment” when
both address bits match and a Slave-address at R/W Bit = “0” is received. There is a case that
describes “Read Slave-address assignment” when both address bits matches and a
Slave-address at R/W Bit = “1” is received.

1-6. The Second and Succeeding Bytes
The data format of the second and succeeding bytes of the AK4601 Transfer / Receive Serial data
(command code, address and data in microcontroller interface format) on the I²C BUS are all configured
with a multiple of 8-bits. When transferring or receiving those data on the I²C BUS, they are divided into
an 8-bit data stream segment and they are transferred / received with the MSB side data first with an
acknowledgement in-between.

Note 53. In this document, there is a case that describes a write instruction command code which is
received at the second byte as “Write Command”. There is a case that describes a read
instruction command code which is received at the second byte as “Read Command”.
