Support for multiple private management<br />
busses<br />
– Multiple private busses can reduce need for<br />
external I 2 C bus multiplexing<br />
– Hardware-based m/s or slave-only hardwarebased<br />
interfaces are best<br />
– Important for LAN Controller interface performance<br />
– ‘Open drain’ or ‘quasi- bi-directional’ I/O can be<br />
used to create ‘bit banged’ private busses<br />
– Mainly useful for interfacing to sensor devices,<br />
particularly ones that do not require extensive polling<br />
