Command signal
Bus release signal
The 8-bit data output following the bus release signal and command signal is defined as an address. In a slave
device, the hardware detects the condition and the hardware or software checks whether the 8-bit data matches
its own number (slave address). If the 8-bit data matches a slave address, the slave device is selected. This slave
device communicates with the master device until the slave is disconnected from the master.
