THEORY OF OPERATION (continued)
For read-back operation, the master device sends the I²C address and sets the R/W bit. DAC8571
acknowledges. Then, upon the receipt of clock pulses from the master, DAC8571 sends the MS byte. If the
master acknowledges, DAC8571 sends the LS byte. If the master acknowledges, DAC8571 sends the control
byte. This sequence is interrupted by the master sending a not acknowledge signal.
Depending on the contents of the control byte transmitted by the DAC8571, the MS byte and LS byte information
(transmitted by the DAC8571) is interpreted as follows:
C<5>
C<4> C<2>
0
0
0
MS and LS bytes represent temporary register data
0
1
0
MS and LS bytes represent temporary and DAC register data
1

0
MS and LS bytes represent I²C data that is discarded
1

MS and LS bytes represent I²C data that is discarded

MS and LS bytes represent temporary and DAC register data
