I3C PENDING READ WITH RETRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240281403 titled 'I3C PENDING READ WITH RETRANSMISSION
The patent application relates to a method in an I3C protocol environment for a slave device to notify a master device when data is available to be read from a buffer.
- Identification of a pending read notification message by the slave device to be sent to the master device.
- Transmission of the pending read notification to the master device.
- Waiting an identified amount of time, less than the master device's timeout value, before retransmitting the notification if the data has not been read.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various IoT devices that communicate using the I3C protocol. - It can improve data transfer efficiency and reduce latency in communication between devices.
Problems Solved: - Efficient notification mechanism for data availability in a buffer. - Minimizing delays in data retrieval by the master device.
Benefits: - Faster data access for the master device. - Improved overall performance of devices in an I3C protocol environment.
Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Data Transfer Protocol for IoT Devices This technology can be applied in smart home devices, industrial IoT systems, and automotive electronics to optimize data communication and enhance device performance.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does this method improve data transfer efficiency in IoT devices? 2. What are the key advantages of using the I3C protocol for communication in this context?
Original Abstract Submitted
embodiments of the present disclosure may relate to apparatus, process, or techniques in a i3c protocol environment that include identifying a pending read notification message by a slave device to be sent to a master device to indicate that the data is available to be read by the master device from a buffer associated with the slave device. the pending read notification may be subsequently transmitted to the master device. subsequently, until the data in the buffer has been read by the master device, the slave device may wait an identified amount of time that is less than a value of a timeout of the master device, and retransmit the pending read notification message to the master device. other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
