Inter-integrated circuit (I2C) bus extender

Abstract:

According to some aspects, a network interoperability device is provided, comprising a first interface configured to electrically couple to one or more inter-integrated circuit (I2C) devices via an I2C bus, a second interface configured to electrically couple to a data input port and a distinct data output port of a non-I2C transceiver, and a control circuit electrically coupled to the first and second interfaces and configured to control communication of an I2C frame between the I2C bus and the non-I2C transceiver.
