levels (see Section 4.4.5).
NOTES: 2. Note that SDA does not have the standard I
2
C specification 300-ns internal hold time. SDA must be valid by the rising and falling
edges of SCL. TI recommends that a minimum 2-k pullup resistor be used to avoid potential timing issues.
NOTES: 3. A fast-mode I

C-bus device can be used in a standard-mode I
2
C-bus system, but the requirement t
SU-DAT
250 ns must then be
met. This is automatically the case if the device does not stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch
the LOW period of the SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line t
