clock pulse. A slave receiver which is addressed must generate an acknowledge after
the reception of each byte. Also a master receiver must generate an acknowledge
after the reception of each byte that has been clocked out of the slave transmitter.
The device that acknowledges must pull down the SDA line during the acknowledge
clock pulse, so that the SDA line is stable LOW during the HIGH period of the
acknowledge related clock pulse (set-up and hold times must be taken into
consideration). A master receiver must signal an end of data to the transmitter by not
generating an acknowledge on the last byte that has been clocked out of the slave. In
this event the transmitter must leave the data line HIGH to enable the master to
generate a stop condition.

C-bus protocol
9.5.1 Addressing
Before any data is transmitted on the I
2
C-bus, the device which should respond is
addressed first. The addressing is always carried out with the first byte transmitted
after the start procedure.
The PCF8563 acts as a slave receiver or slave transmitter. Therefore the clock signal
SCL is only an input signal, but the data signal SDA is a bidirectional line.
The PCF8563 slave address is shown in Figure 12.
