Figure 24-13. Data Transfer in Master Receiver Mode
A START condition is sent by writing the following value to TWCR:
TWEN must be written to one to enable the 2-wire Serial Interface, TWSTA must be written to one to transmit a
START condition and TWINT must be set 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 24-2 on page 249). In order
to enter MR mode, SLA+R must be transmitted. This is done by writing SLA+R to TWDR. Thereafter 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:
When SLA+R 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 0x38, 0x40, or 0x48. The
appropriate action to be taken for each of these status codes is detailed in Table 24-3 on page 252. Received data
can be read from the TWDR Register when the TWINT Flag is set high by hardware. This scheme is repeated until
the last byte has been received. After the last byte has been received, the MR should inform the ST by sending a
NACK after the last received data byte. The transfer is ended by generating 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 switch between Slaves,
Master Transmitter mode and Master Receiver mode without losing control over the bus.
