SMBUS INTERFACE
www.ti.com
The AMC6821 communicates through the serial system management bus (SMBus). The AMC6821 is connected
to this bus as a slave device, under the control of a bus master. The AMC6821 has a 7-bit serial bus address
that is programmable by properly connecting the address pins A0 and A1. Table 2 shows the selection of the
AMC6821 slave address. The address selection pins should be either tied directly to VDD or GND. For the NC
condition, they should be unconnected with minimum trace capacitance. Note that the address is checked only
on a reset or power-up condition.

Communication Protocols
The AMC6821 employs four standard SMBus protocols: the send byte, receive byte, write byte, and read byte.
All other operations result in undefined results. Repeated start is not allowed during the read bit.

P
S = start condition; P = stop condition; shaded = slave to master; unshaded = master to slave; WR = write (bit value of 0).
