2.3 Serial Clock (SCL)

The SCL pin is used to provide a clock to the device and to control the flow of data to and from the device. Command and input data present on the SDA pin is always latched in on the rising edge of SCL, while output data on the SDA pin is clocked out on the falling edge of SCL. The SCL pin must either be forced high when the serial bus is idle or pulled high using an external pull-up resistor.
