During a START condition, a bus collision occurs if:
a)
b)
During a START condition both the SDA and the SCL
pins are monitored.
If:
then:
The START condition begins with the SDA and SCL
pins deasserted. When the SDA pin is sampled high,
the baud rate generator is loaded from SSPADD<6:0>
and counts down to 0. If the SCL pin is sampled low

while SDA is high, a bus collision occurs, because it is
assumed that another master is attempting to drive a
data ’1’ during the START condition.
If the SDA pin is sampled low during this count, the
BRG is reset and the SDA line is asserted early
(Figure

count. The baud rate generator is then reloaded and
counts down to 0. During this time, if the SCL pins are
sampled as ’0’, a bus collision does not occur. At the
end of the BRG count ,the SCL pin is asserted low.

9-22). If however a ’1’ is sampled on the SDA
The reason that bus collision is not a factor
during a START condition is that no two
bus masters can assert a START condition
at the exact same time. Therefore, one
master will always assert SDA before the
other. This condition does not cause a bus
collision, because the two masters must be
allowed to arbitrate the first address follow-
ing the START condition. If the address is
the same, arbitration must be allowed to
continue into the data portion, REPEATED
START or STOP conditions.

cleared in software.
