The first byte of data transmitted after start condition contains the 7-bit address of I²C slave.
The 8
th
bit is an R/W bit which tells whether the master wants to read (R/W = 1) or write
(R/W = 0) data from/to the slave.
Once the slave is addressed, it sends a low active acknowledge bit and accepts the following
data transferred by master. Otherwise it aborts the current data transfer and waits for the start
condition of next data transmission.
