STOP

A logic '1' is transmitted as a low level on the CQ line, and a logic '0' is transmitted as a high level on the line. The

idle state for the CQ line is low.

Even parity is used, that is, there is always an even number of logical '1' bits in the 9 bit concatenation of the data

bits b[7:0] and the parity bit.

M-sequence interpretation

The data direction is derived from the MSB of the first octet of the master message, M-sequence control (MC),

where a ‘1’ denotes a read operation and a '0' a write.

Address

The M-sequence type is derived from bits [7:6] of the second octet of the master message, “Checksum/

Msequence type” (CKT), which have permissible values of 2'b00, 2'b01, or 2'b10, and denotes whether the

structure of the message is of Type 0, Type 1 or Type 2.

M-seq. type

Checksum

The total length of the received M-sequence is determined according to Table 23 and is dependent on the

M-sequence type and on the transfer direction (READ or WRITE).
