For example, the Aardvark I2C/SPI adapter can be configured to program firmware onto EEPROMs, read data from specific registers, and run automated tests scripts.
What is aardvark i2c? The Aardvark is a fast and powerful I2C bus and SPI bus host adapter that operates via USB. It enables developers to interface with Windows, Linux, or Mac OS X PC via USB to a downstream embedded system environment and transfer serial messages using the I2C and SPI protocols.

It used to be that when a microcontroller linked together multiple devices, the data lines and address of each device were individually connected. This obviously took up much pin space, many PCB traces, and greater component requirements to tie all the data together. The result? High expenses and high interference susceptibility.
Enter the Inter-IC (I2C )bus in the 1980s.
This made these systems expensive to produce and susceptible to interference and noise. I2C is the protocol used for on board communications over the serial data (SDA) and serial clock (SCL) wires. It is short distance, a low-bandwidth.
As communication occurs exclusively through these two wires, and these two wires only, a unique address is required to identify the connected device. The lower bits of the predefined address of slave devices, can be reassigned to enable multiples such devices.
The protocol the I2C operates under is a simple master-slave protocol:
