PRODUCTION DATA
When a master drives SDA1 low, SDA2 follows after a certain delay in the transmit direction. When SDA2 turns low it also causes the output of buffer B to turn low but at a higher 0.65 V level. This level cannot be observed immediately as it is overwritten by the lower low-level of the master.
However, when the master releases SDA1, the voltage potential increases and first must pass the upper input threshold of the comparator, VIHT1, to release SDA2. SDA1 then increases further until it reaches the buffered output level of VOL1 = 0.65 V, maintained by the receive path. When comparator C turns high, SDA2 is released after the delay in transmit direction. It takes another receive delay until B’s output turns high and fully releases SDA1 to move toward VCC1 potential.
