PRODUCTION DATA.
This serializer may also be configured by the use of a I2C-compatible serial control bus. Multiple devices may share the serial control bus (up to 8 device addresses supported). The device address is set through a resistor divider (R1 and R2 — see Figure 17 below) connected to the IDx pin.
The serial control bus consists of two signals, SCL and SDA. SCL is a Serial Bus Clock Input. SDA is the Serial Bus Data Input / Output signal. Both SCL and SDA signals require an external pullup resistor to VDD18 or VDD33. For most applications, a 4.7-kΩ pullup resistor is recommended. However, the pullup resistor value may be adjusted for capacitive loading and data rate requirements. The signals are either pulled High, or driven Low.
The IDx pin configures the control interface to one of 8 possible device addresses. A pullup resistor and a pulldown resistor may be used to set the appropriate voltage on the IDx input pin See Table 8. 1% or 5% resistors can be used.

The Serial Bus protocol is controlled by START, START-Repeated, and STOP phases. A START occurs when SCL transitions Low while SDA is High. A STOP occurs when SDA transitions High while SCL is also HIGH. See Figure 18.
To communicate with an I2C slave, the host controller (master) sends the slave address and listens for a response from the slave. This response is referred to as an acknowledge bit (ACK). If a slave on the bus is addressed correctly, it Acknowledges (ACKs) the master by driving the SDA bus Low. If the address does not match a slave address of the device, it Not-acknowledges (NACKs) the master by letting SDA be pulled High. ACKs also occur on the bus when data is being transmitted. When the master is writing data, the slave ACKs after every data byte is successfully received. When the master is reading data, the master ACKs after every data byte is received to let the slave know that the host is ready to receive another data byte. When the master wants to stop reading, it NACKs after the last data byte and creates a stop condition on the bus. All communication on the bus begins with either a Start condition or a Repeated Start condition. All communication on the bus ends with a Stop condition. A READ is shown in Figure 19 and a WRITE is shown in Figure 20.
The I2C Master located at the serializer must support I2C clock stretching. For more information on I2C interface requirements and throughput considerations, refer to the TI Application Note AN-2173 I2C Communication Over FPD-Link III with Bidirectional Control Channel (SNLA131).
