After this the clock starts and each data bit is transferred during each clock pulse. The start condition occurs when data line drops low while the clock line is still high. Let’s take even closer look at these events. Right after the addressing sequences follows the data sequences as many until the data is completely sent and it ends with a special stop condition. After the first Acknowledge bit in most cases comes another addressing sequence but this time for the internal registers of the slave device. After each 8 bits sequence follows a bit called Acknowledge. So after a special start condition occurs comes the first 8 bits sequence which indicates the address of the slave to which the data is being sent.

The data signal is transferred in sequences of 8 bits.
