Abstract
A two wire bidirectional bus system is provided in which at least one of the slave nodes is configured to enter into a sleep mode, thereby minimizing power drainage, whenever the bus master stops transferring data over the bidirectional bus, and to wake up whenever the bus master begins to transfer data over the bidirectional bus.
