8.2.17.1 Data Validity
The data on the SDA line must be stable during the HIGH period of the clock. The HIGH or LOW state of the
data line can only change when the clock signal on the SCL line is LOW. One clock pulse is generated for each
data bit transferred.

8.2.17.2 START and STOP Conditions
All transactions begin with a START (S) and can be terminated by a STOP (P). A HIGH to LOW transition on the
SDA line while SCl is HIGH defines a START condition. A LOW to HIGH transition on the SDA line when the
SCL is HIGH defines a STOP condition.
START and STOP conditions are always generated by the master. The bus is considered busy after the START
condition, and free after the STOP condition.

8.2.17.3 Byte Format
Every byte on the SDA line must be 8 bits long. The number of bytes to be transmitted per transfer is
unrestricted. Each byte has to be followed by an Acknowledge bit. Data is transferred with the Most Significant
Bit (MSB) first. If a slave cannot receive or transmit another complete byte of data until it has performed some
other function, it can hold the clock line SCL low to force the master into a wait state (clock stretching). Data
transfer then continues when the slave is ready for another byte of data and release the clock line SCL.
