The direction of data flow on SDA can be changed by the controller, without first stopping a transfer, by issuing a repeated START condition. This is called a RESTART, see data format in Figure 26-11. After a RESTART is issued, the target address is again sent out with the new data direction specified by the R/W bit.
A repeated start sequence for a controller transmit or receive is as follows:
If there is a NACK for address, a STOP condition will be automatically generated. RESTART cannot be sent in that case.
