TRANSFERRING DATA
Every byte put on the SDA line must be eight bits long, with the most significant bit (MSB) being transferred first.
Each byte of data has to be followed by an acknowledge bit. The acknowledge related clock pulse is generated
by the master. The transmitter releases the SDA line (HIGH) during the acknowledge clock pulse. The receiver
must pull down the SDA line during the 9th clock pulse, signifying an acknowledge. A receiver which has been
addressed must generate an acknowledge after each byte has been received.
After the START condition, the I2C master sends a chip address. This address is seven bits long followed by an
eighth bit which is a data direction bit (R/W). The LP3952 address is 54h or 55H as selected with ADDR_SEL
pin. I2C address for LP3952 is 54H when ADDR_SEL=0 and 55H when ADDR_SEL=1. For the eighth bit, a
“0” indicates a WRITE and a “1” indicates a READ. The second byte selects the register to which the data will be
written. The third byte contains data to write to the selected register.

When a READ function is to be accomplished, a WRITE function must precede the READ function, as shown in the Read Cycle waveform.
