Abstract
A system for monitoring inter-integrated circuit (12C) communication includes a power supply, a battery backup unit, an 12C serial clock line (SCL) coupled between the power supply and the battery backup unit, an 12C serial data line (SDA) coupled between the power supply and the battery backup unit, and a controller. A first monitor line is coupled between the controller and the 12C serial clock line, and a second monitor line is coupled between the controller and the 12C serial data line. The controller is configured to monitor a digital communication transmitted on the 12C serial clock and data lines between the power supply and the battery backup unit, interpret a message included in the monitored digital communication, and perform a control function according to the interpreted message.
