Hi team,
My customer has some application question on their design.
They are wondering that is possible to make redriver load config from EEPROM, after the FW has been loaded, CPU or BMC still have the ability is modify config via I2C line?
The question here is since load config from EEPROM is master mode, but taking config from CPU/ BMC this should be slave mode. Does this affect the config behavior after loading config from EEPROM? Thank you.
Hi Oliver,
From Section 7.1 of the datasheet:
The redriver only operates in I2C master mode when the EEPROM is being read. After this is completed it switches to I2C slave mode.
Best,
Evan Su
Hi Evan,
Thank you for your input, sounds like that is ok to be achieved. Customer is going to implement this as below.
