wherein the page location and the register address included in the datagram have a length of 8-bits.

19. The receiving device of claim 13 , wherein the processing circuit configured to capture the sending device address is configured to:

detect a start of the bus arbitration;

detect the sending device winning the bus arbitration; and

capture the sending device address based on the sending device winning the bus arbitration.

20. The receiving device of claim 13 , wherein the processing circuit configured to capture the sending device address is configured to:

store the sending device address in a buffer.

21. The receiving device of claim 19 , the processing circuit configured to:

detect that a bus ownership session of the sending device has ended; and

release the sending device address when the bus ownership session of the sending device has ended.

22. A receiving device for receiving a datagram from a sending device via a bus, comprising:

means for capturing a sending device address during bus arbitration;

means for receiving the datagram subsequent to the bus arbitration, the datagram including at least a register address and a payload;
