Here is a simple question. 24LC16/AT24C16 transfers data with LSB or MSB? I can not find it on the manual. It stars with LSB, right? Thank you.
Dear Eric, It is entirely up to you. You can consider the first coming bit of the data byte LSB or MSB depending on your individual preferences, since you are the system designer. You can even make it any other bit you like if you are looking for troubles. :-) Sincerely, m.
This would be true if you were the only one to write and then read your own device, but if you try to interact with a device programmed on another system, you have 50% probability to chose the wrong bit order.... The 24C16 is an I2C component, Philips I2C bus specification http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/acrobat/literature/9398/39340011.pdf on page 10 says that information on I2C bus is transferred MSB first.
Thank you for your help. Then May I let MCU send the LSB first to 24LC16?
My sincere thank to both of you. let me make it work.
