It uses I2C as its backbone (see -.Xr iicbus 4 ). - -A system using SMB passes messages to and from devices instead of tripping -individual control lines. - -With the SMBus, a device can provide manufacturer information, tell the -system what its model/part number is, save its state for a suspend event, -report different types of errors, accept control parameters, and return its -status. - -The SMBus may share the same host device and physical bus as ACCESS bus -components provided that an appropriate electrical bridge is provided -between the internal SMB devices and external ACCESS bus devices. -.Sh SEE ALSO -.Xr iicbus 4 , -.Xr iicsmb 4 , -.Xr bktr 4 , -.Xr smb 4 -.Sh HISTORY -The -.Nm -manual page first appeared in -.Fx 3.0 . -.Sh AUTHOR -This -manual page was written by -.An Nicolas Souchu . |
