  • Multi-device burst update method
    Patent number: 10860509
    Abstract: One example includes a non-transitory storage medium storing a set of instructions, which upon being implemented by a processing element cause the processing element to initiate a burst update communication session from a master microcontroller device on a bus and provide a burst address in the burst update communication session from the master microcontroller device to slave microcontroller devices on the bus. The slave microcontroller devices on the bus can have a burst address to concurrently activate the slave microcontroller devices to read data. The instructions can also cause the processing element to provide burst data corresponding to a burst update from the master microcontroller device to the slave microcontroller devices on the bus based on the burst address, and conclude the burst update communication session from the master microcontroller device to the slave microcontroller devices on the bus.
