I3C Advanced Controller Lite

Overview

The I3C Advanced Controller Lite is a highly configurable I3C controller that can be used in microcontroller-based environments to provide I3C connectivity to any device. It contains controller capabilities as well as many of the same features as the I3C Advanced Target. It can be configured in a number of different ways to allow the core to use the minimum amount of logic to reduce both area (cost) and power.
