Abstract:
A baseboard management controller (BMC) includes a plurality of device I2C interfaces. Each device I2C interfaces provides a device I2C bus that is ported externally to the BMC. The BMC further includes a plurality of device buffer/switch circuits. Each device buffer/switch circuit is connected to a respective device I2C bus, and is configured to selectably connect to the respective I2C bus in a high-impedance mode, an open-drain mode, and a FET switch mode. The BMC further includes a multiplexor/driver circuit that has a multiplexor I2C interface that provides a multiplexor I2C bus that is ported externally to the BMC. The multiplexor/driver circuit is coupled to each device I2C bus via the respective buffer/switch circuit, and is configured to selectively couple one of the device I2C busses to the multiplexor I2C bus, and to select one of the high-impedance mode, the open-drain mode, or the FET switch mode for the selected buffer/switch circuit.

Claim (Index 10):
The baseboard management controller of  claim 9 , wherein the EAF circuit further operates to inject a second analog signal on the identified I2C bus.
