Abstract
A communication apparatus includes an IC logic circuit, an I3C logic circuit, an external terminal, and a switch circuit. The IC logic circuit controls communication via a control data bus in accordance with an IC (Inter?Integrated Circuit) communication standard. The I3C logic circuit controls the communication via the control data bus in accordance with an I3C (Improved Inter Integrated Circuit) communication standard. The external terminal is coupled to the control data bus. The switch circuit controls coupling between one of the IC logic circuit and the I3C logic circuit, and the external terminal.
