Abstract
A master includes a transmission and receiving unit that transmits and receives signals to and from a slave, and the transmission and receiving unit receives read data read out from the slave, and typically drives the second bit of a preamble transmitted/received subsequent to the read data. The master can notify the slave that communication is or is not interrupted at some midpoint, on the basis of the second bit of the preamble. The present technology can be applied to a bus IF that communicates pursuant to, for example, the specification of I3C.
