Serial Clock (SCL)

Description
The SCL input is used to clock all data into and out of
the device.
Serial Data (SDA)
t SDA is a bidirectional pin used to transfer data into and
out of the device. It is an open drain output and may be
c wire-ORed with any number of open drain or open col-
lector outputs.
u An open drain output requires the use of a pull-up
resistor. For selecting typical values, refer to the Pull-
up resistor selection graph at the end of this data
d sheet.
Device Select (S0, S1)
o The device select inputs (S0, S1) are used to set bits in
r the slave address. This allows up to four devices to
share a common bus. These inputs can be static or
actively driven. If used statically they must be tied to
P VSS or VCC as appropriate. If actively driven, they must
be driven with CMOS levels (driven to VCC or VSS) and
they must be constant between each start and stop
issued on the SDA bus. These pins have an active pull
e down internally and will be sensed as low if the pin is
left unconnected.
t Write Protect (WP)
WP must be constant between each start and stop
e issued on the SDA bus and is always active (not
l gated). The WP pin has an active pull down to disable
the write protection when the input is left floating. The
Write Protect input controls the Hardware Write Protect
o feature. When held LOW, Hardware Write Protection is
disabled. When this input is held HIGH, and the WPEN
s bit in the Write Protect Register is set HIGH, the Write
Protect Register is protected, preventing changes to
Ob the Block Lock Protection and WPEN bits.
