Two-wire Serial

Interface Bus

Definition

The Two-wire Serial Interface (TWI) is ideally suited for typical microcontroller applications. The

TWI protocol allows the systems designer to interconnect up to 128 different devices using only

two bi-directional bus lines, one for clock (SCL) and one for data (SDA). The only external hard-

ware needed to implement the bus is a single pull-up resistor for each of the TWI bus lines. All

devices connected to the bus have individual addresses, and mechanisms for resolving bus

contention are inherent in the TWI protocol.

Term

Description

Master

The device that initiates and terminates a transmission. The Master also

generates the SCL clock.

Slave

The device addressed by a Master.

Transmitter

The device placing data on the bus.

Receiver

The device reading data from the bus.
