ICM-20948 Solution Using I2C Interface

The ICM-20948 is an I2C master to the optional external sensor. The ICM-20948 has limited capabilities as an I2C Master and depends on the system processor to manage the initial configuration of any auxiliary sensors. The ICM-20948 has an interface bypass multiplexer, which connects the system processor I2C bus pins 23 and 24 (SCL and SDA) directly to the auxiliary sensor I2C bus pins 7 and 21 (AUX_CL and AUX_DA).

Once the auxiliary sensors have been configured by the system processor, the interface bypass multiplexer should be disabled so that the ICM-20948 auxiliary I2C master can take control of the sensor I2C bus and gather data from the auxiliary sensors.
