2 Host Interface (I2C Bus)
A fast-mode 400 kHz I2C bus slave interface is used for controlling the device and reading the status of
the device via the data pin SDA and clock pin SCL. The bus has 3 address select pins, SAD0, SAD1,
and SAD2. This allows up to 8 devices to be connected in parallel.

Bit 0 of the I2C address is the R/W bit. Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 for usage.
2.1 Host Interface Control
Table 2 describes the Host Interface Control Register bits (power-on Reset = 0x00).

Start/Stop
0
When set, initiates an activation and a cold reset procedure; when reset, initiates
a deactivation sequence.
Warm reset
1
When set, initiates a warm reset procedure; automatically reset by hardware
when the card starts answering or when the card is declared mute.

When set, VCC = 3 V; when reset, VCC = 5 V.
When set, card clock is stopped. Bit 4 determines the card clock stop level.
When set, card clock stops high; when reset card clock stops low.

When set, data is transferred between I/O (AUX1, AUX2) and I/OUC (AUX1UC,
AUX2UC); when reset, I/O (AUX1, AUX2) and I/OUC (AUX1UC, AUX2UC) are
high impedance.
I2C-bus Write to the Control Register
The I2C-bus Write command to the control register follows the format shown in Figure 2.
After the START condition, the master sends a slave address. This address is seven bits long followed
by an eighth bit, which is an opcode bit (R/W) – a ‘zero’ indicates the master will write data to the control
register. After the R/W bit, the ’zero’ ACK bit is sent to the master by the device. The master now starts
sending the 8 bits of data to the control register during the DATA bits time. After the DATA bits, the ‘zero’
