Abstract
Expanded function datagrams in a system power management interface (SPMI) system allow a slave to use an expanded function datagram to address a larger number of masters (e.g., more than four) associated with the SPMI system. Furthermore, addressing may allow for a datagram to be broadcast to multiple masters concurrently. Still further, by signaling that the master addressing is other than the standard SPMI format, the nature of the address and payload of a datagram may be varied to handle larger volumes of data than the SPMI standard normally allows.
