Abstract:
A device is configured with a plurality of device addresses and a plurality of dedicated device configurations, with each device address being associated with one dedicated device configuration. The device includes an inter-integrated circuit (I2C) communication interface configured to receive a serial data line (SDA) signal that includes an address frame that identifies a target device for communication with a master device and a dedicated device configuration of the target device. The device includes a processing circuit configured to decode the address frame to identify the target device. Based on the device being the target device, the processing circuit is configured to decode the address frame to identify the dedicated device configuration corresponding to one dedicated device configuration of the plurality of dedicated device configurations of the device, and the processing circuit is configured to configure the device according to the dedicated device configuration identified based on the address frame.
