ABSTRACT:
A requesting device sends a request, intended to read one or more device addresses on a bus. One or more sets of commands are then sent by the requesting device, where each set of commands is intended to read one device address. If, while a first device is writing its device address, the bus fails to display any of the driven values of the first address, because the second device is simultaneously writing a second address on the bus in response to the request, then the first device stops writing the first address. The first device does not write the first address again until after the second device has finished writing the second address.
