TMG3992 − I²C Protocol

The device uses I2C serial communication protocol for

communication. The device supports 7-bit chip addressing and

both standard and fast clock frequency modes. Read and Write

transactions comply with the standard set by Philips (now NXP).

Internal to the device, an 8-bit buffer stores the register address

location of the desired byte to read or write. This buffer

auto-increments upon each byte transfer and is retained

between transaction events (I.e. valid even after the master

issues a STOP command and the I2C bus is released). During

consecutive Read transactions, the future/repeated I2C Read

transaction may omit the memory address byte normally

following the chip address byte; the buffer retains the last

I²C Write Transaction

A Write transaction consists of a START, CHIP-ADDRESSWRITE,

byte (9TH clock pulse) the slave places an ACKNOWLEDGE/NOT-

ACKNOWLEDGE (ACK/NACK) on the bus. If NACK is transmitted

by the slave, the master may issue a STOP.

I²C Read Transaction

A Read transaction consists of a START, CHIP-ADDRESSWRITE,

and STOP. Following all but the final byte the master places an

ACK on the bus (9TH clock pulse). Termination of the Read

transaction is indicated by a NACK being placed on the bus by

the master, followed by STOP.

Alternately, if the previous I2C transaction was a Read, the

internal register address buffer is still valid, allowing the

transaction to proceed without “re”-specifying the register

address. In this case the transaction consists of a START,

CHIP-ADDRESSREAD, DATA BYTE(S), and STOP. Following all but

the final byte the master places an ACK on the bus (9TH clock

pulse). Termination of the Read transaction is indicated by a

NACK being placed on the bus by the master, followed by STOP.

The I²C bus protocol was developed by Philips (now NXP). For
