24VL014 DS22129A-page 6 © 2009 Microchip Technology Inc. 3.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The 24VL014 supports a bidirectional, 2-wire bus and data transmission protocol. A device that sends data onto the bus is defined as transmitter, and a device receiving data as receiver. The bus has to be controlled by a master device that generates the Serial Clock (SCL), controls the bus access and generates the Start and Stop conditions, while the 24VL014 works as slave. Both master and slave can operate as transmitter or receiver, but the master device determines which mode is activated. |
