This scheme is repeated until the last byte has been sent and the transfer is ended by
generating a STOP condition or a repeated START condition. A STOP condition is gen-
erated by writing the following value to TWCR:
A REPEATED START condition is generated by writing the following value to TWCR:
After a repeated START condition (state 0x10) the Two-wire Serial Interface can access
the same Slave again, or a new Slave without transmitting a STOP condition. Repeated
START enables the Master to switch between Slaves, Master Transmitter mode and
Master Receiver mode without losing control of the bus..
