#183536 - Just as there is a timeout
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Terminating the slave response with the 9th bit set should be ok. Especially if the slave always used a fixed value that does not collide with the address used for any other slave in the system - preferably a hardcoded value like 0 or 255, or the slave's own address.

This would work very well, as long as the master side does have a timeout handler, to recover if the last transfer gets garbled. So master can switch data direction instantly when all is well, but the bus gets a short idle period if last byte no longer had the high bit set for some reason.
