A board member from the MIPI Alliance shares the group's efforts to expand adoption of its I3C sensor interface.
The MIPI Alliance recently opened access to the MIPI I3C interface specification to encourage its adoption beyond the traditional mobile applications where it is already used by leading SoC and sensor vendors. The Alliance also invites other electronics standards groups to consider adopting the specification.
The interface, released more than a year ago, has transformed sensor integration for smartphones and other mobile applications that require low-power, low-cost and highly efficient system design. It features technological advances while maintaining backwards compatibility to I2C.
