Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology may provide methods and system for an integrated circuit. The system may provide a plurality of integrated circuits (i.e., slave devices) connected to and configured to communicate with a host device. Each integrated circuit may comprise a register storing a common default address. Each integrated circuit may further comprise an interface circuit configured to overwrite the default address of one integrated circuit with a new address while preventing changes to the remaining integrated circuits.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology may provide methods and system for an integrated circuit. The system may provide, at most, two integrated circuits (i.e., slave devices) connected to and configured to communicate with a host device (i.e., a master device). At least one of integrated circuits may comprise a first interface and a second interface, wherein the second interface is connected to the host in a manner that is opposite that of the first interface.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, an actuator control circuit includes a driver circuit connected to a ringing characteristic determination circuit. A signal generator that is configured to generate an output signal having first period that has first and second portions where the first portion longer than the second portion is connected to the ringing characteristic determination circuit. Another embodiment includes a method for controlling an actuator by determining a resonant frequency and a ringing amplitude of an actuator signal; generating a control signal in response to the resonant frequency and the ringing amplitude of the actuator signal; and causing the actuator to move in response to the second drive signal.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology may provide methods and system for communication between a host device and slave devices. The system may provide a plurality of integrated circuits (i.e., slave devices) connected to and configured to communicate with a host device (i.e., a master device). Each integrated circuit may provide a register to store a unique slave address, a global slave address, and an order number. The host device may communicate with each slave device individually using the unique slave address and communicate with all slave devices simultaneously using the global slave address and the order number.
