Chapter 22: LPC24XX I2C interfaces I2C0/1/2
If the AA bit is reset during a transfer, the I2C block will return a not acknowledge (logic 1)
to SDA after the next received data byte. While AA is reset, the I2C block does not
respond to its own slave address or a general call address. However, the I2C bus is still
monitored and address recognition may be resumed at any time by setting AA. This
means that the AA bit may be used to temporarily isolate the I2C block from the I2C bus.
