Hi,
Can i use the I2C and see data that is longer than 8 bits without ACK ?
If yes how should I do this ?

Thanks,
Roee

Hi Roee.
I know nothing, I guess it is not possible do that though.
Indeed the I2C protocol requires for every 8 bits of data to be sent, one extra bit of meta data (the “ACK/NACK” bit) must be transmitted:

Be seeing you.
