I3C Bus Specification - Improvements Over I2C and SPI Protocols

Explore the MIPI Alliance's I3C bus specification in this informative conference talk. Learn about the improvements I3C offers over I2C and SPI protocols, including higher data rates, lower power consumption, and advanced features like dynamic address assignment, host join, and in-band interrupts. Discover how Linux support for this new bus is being developed through collaboration between Free Electrons and Cadence Design Systems. Gain insights into the planned implementation of I3C features in Linux and potential future enhancements to the I3C framework. Delivered by Boris Brezillon, an embedded systems expert and Linux kernel contributor from Bootlin (formerly Free Electrons), this talk provides a comprehensive introduction to I3C technology and its integration into the Linux ecosystem.
