Bus Collision During a Stop 
Condition
Bus collision occurs during a Stop condition if:
a)
After the SDAx pin has been deasserted and
allowed to float high, SDAx is sampled low after
the BRG has timed out (Case 1).
b)
After the SCLx pin is deasserted, SCLx is
sampled low before SDAx goes high (Case 2).
The Stop condition begins with SDAx asserted low.
When SDAx is sampled low, the SCLx pin is allowed to
float. When the pin is sampled high (clock arbitration),
the Baud Rate Generator is loaded with SSPxADD and
counts down to zero. After the BRG times out, SDAx is
sampled. If SDAx is sampled low, a bus collision has
occurred. This is due to another master attempting to
drive a data ‘0’ (
). If the SCLx pin is
sampled low before SDAx is allowed to float high, a bus
collision occurs. This is another case of another master
attempting to drive a data ‘0’ (
).
