7.5.1 Communication Protocol

Each communication of the SMAART Wire™ / UART protocol consists of 8-bit word, transferred least significant bit (LSB) first. Each 8-bit word begins with a Start bit that is logic low, and ends with a Stop bit that is logic high. By using a Start bit and Stop bit for each 8-bit word, the TMP144 can calibrate each word and keep synchronous communication throughout the process.

The steps for the SMAART Wire™ / UART communication protocol are:

  1. The host sends a Start bit to start the communication process.
  2. The host sends the calibration byte (55h) to allow the TMP144 to sync to the baud rate of the host.
  3. The host sends a Stop bit after the calibration byte.
  4. The host sends a second Start bit, followed by the command register byte and a Stop bit.
  5. The host sends a third Start bit, followed by the data byte only for writes.
  6. The host will send the data byte(s) if the instruction is a write command.
  7. The host sends a Stop bit to finish the process.
    Note: The device will break the chain and send the data byte(s) if the instruction sent in the command register is a read command.

The sequence is shown in Figure 7-4.

The command byte is decoded by the TMP144 to determine the format of the subsequent communication operation. Table 7-2 lists the command register byte values.
