Control channel start timeout: (STO) times out if ECU does not start using control channel within this amount of time
after control channel session is enabled.

Choosing I

C Pullup Resistors
I
2
C requires pullup resistors to provide a logic-high level
to data and clock lines. There are tradeoffs between
power dissipation and speed, and a compromise must
be made in choosing pullup resistor values. Every device
connected to the bus introduces some capacitance even
when device is not in operation. I
2
C specifies 300ns rise
times to go from low to high (30% to 70%) for fast mode,
which is defined for a date rate up to 400kbps (see I
2
C
specifications for details). To meet the rise time require-
ment, choose the pullup resistors so the rise time

< 300ns. If the transition time
becomes too slow, the setup and hold times may not be
met and waveforms will not be recognized.
