Abstract

Systems and methods are disclosed resetting a slave identification (SID) of an integrated circuit (IC). An exemplary method comprises determining that a plurality of ICs in communication with a shared bus have the same SID, the shared bus operating in a master/slave configuration. A common memory address of the ICs is identified, where data stored in the common memory address is different for a first IC and a second IC. Each of the ICs receives over the shared bus a new SID value and match data. The ICs compare the match data with the data stored in the common memory address. If the match data is the same as the data in the common memory address, the SID is changed the received new SID value.
