Chapter 3 System Management Bus Interface Protocol
A host controller, such as an SMSC I/O controller, communicates with the EMC1023 via the two wire
serial interface named SMBus. The SMBus interface is used to read and write registers in the
EMC1023, which is a slave-only device. A detailed timing diagram is shown in

Figure 3.1 System Management Bus Timing Diagram
The EMC1023 implements a subset of the SMBus specification and supports Write Byte, Read Byte,
Send Byte, Receive Byte, and Alert Response Address protocols. as shown. In the tables that describe
the protocol, the “gray” columns indicate that the slave is driving the bus.
3.1
Write Byte
The Write Byte protocol is used to write one byte of data to the registers as shown below:

Send Byte
The Send Byte protocol is used to set the Internal Address Register to the correct Address. The Send
Byte can be followed by the Receive Byte protocol described below in order to read data from the
register. The send byte protocol cannot be used to write data - if data is to be written to a register then
the write byte protocol must be used as described in subsection above. The send byte protocol is
shown in
