C COMMUNICATION
Communications to the 1420 is read only. To read the pressure counts, the master performs a read request by asserting
a start condition, sending the 7 bit address of the part (If the part has an open address, 7 bits of anything is acceptable),
and sets the read/write bit. The master then waits for an acknowledgment. The acknowledgment is sent by the pressure
sensor along with 2 bits of status and bits 13:8 of the pressure counts, the master acknowledges the first 8 bits, and the
pressure sensor sends the remaining 8 bits of data. The Master then does not acknowledge and sends a stop condition
signaling the end of the transaction.
