Abstract
An integrated circuit includes a first configuration terminal, a second configuration terminal, a bus terminal, and an auto addressing circuit coupled to the first and second configuration terminals. The auto addressing circuit is responsive to a data pattern received at the first configuration terminal to assign a node address to an operational circuit, and subsequently to couple the first configuration terminal to the second configuration terminal. The integrated circuit is subsequently responsive to the node address when the node address is received.
