TWEN must be set to enable the 2-wire Serial Interface, TWSTA must be written to one to trans-
mit a START condition and TWINT must be written to one to clear the TWINT Flag. The TWI will
then test the 2-wire Serial Bus and generate a START condition as soon as the bus becomes
free. After a START condition has been transmitted, the TWINT Flag is set by hardware, and the
status code in TWSR will be 0x08 (see Table 21-3). In order to enter MT mode, SLA+W must be
transmitted. This is done by w riting SLA+W to TWDR. Thereafter the TWINT bit should be
cleared (by writing it to one) to continue the transfer. This is accomplished by writing the follow-
ing value to TWCR:
When SLA+W have been transmitted and an acknowledgement bit has been received, TWINT is
set again and a number of status codes in TWSR are possible. Possible status codes in Master
mode are 0x18, 0x20, or 0x38. The appropriate action to be taken for each of these status codes
is detailed in Table 21-3.
When SLA+W has been successfully transmitted, a data packet should be transmitted. This is
done by writing the data byte to TWDR. TWDR must only be written when TWINT is high. If not,
the access will be discarded, and the Write Collision bit (TWWC) will be set in the TWCR Regis-
ter. After updating TWDR, the TWINT bit should be cleared (by writing it to one) to continue the
transfer. This is accomplished by writing the following value to TWCR:
This scheme is repeated until the last byte has been sent and the transfer is ended by generat-
ing a STOP condition or a repeated START condition. A STOP condition is generated by writing
the following value to TWCR:
A REPEATED START condition is generated by writing the following value to TWCR:
After a repeated START condition (state 0x10) the 2-wire Serial Interface can access the same
Slave again, or a new Slave without transmitting a STOP condition. Repeated START enables
the Master to sw
itch between Slaves, Master Transmitter mode and Master Receiver mode with-
out losing control of the bus.
