Hi all,
I was going through the specs of the I2C and found that 10 bit addressing mode is been supported. My question is with the basic 7 bit address we can address 128 different devices, but due to capacitance effect we can't able to connect all the 128 devices at one time to any system.
So why the 10 bit addressing was been introduced since with the basic 7 bit addressing bits itself, we are unbale to connect all the devices (128) in a single system?? Increasing the addressing bits allows us to address more devices (2^10). How 10bit addressing have an upper hand on the 7bit addressing???
