Generalized configurable trigger

A device for activating trigger data, comprising:

• a serial bus interface;
• and
• a processing circuit coupled to the serial bus interface and configured to:
• receive a plurality of trigger data via a serial bus, wherein, if activated, each one of the plurality of trigger data respectively enables a corresponding operation to be performed at the device;
• receive a plurality of activation data via the serial bus, wherein each one of the plurality of activation data respectively corresponds to each one of the plurality of trigger data;
• detect an activation scheme for activating a respective trigger data of the plurality of trigger data based on activation data corresponding to the respective trigger data;
• and
• activate the respective trigger data according to the detected activation scheme.

A device for activating trigger data, comprising:

• means for receiving a plurality of trigger data via a serial bus, wherein, if activated, each one of the plurality of trigger data respectively enables a corresponding operation to be performed at the device;
• means for receiving a plurality of activation data via the serial bus, wherein each one of the plurality of activation data respectively corresponds to each one of the plurality of trigger data;
• means for detecting an activation scheme for activating a respective trigger data of the plurality of trigger data based on activation data corresponding to the respective trigger data;
• and
• means for activating the respective trigger data according to the detected activation scheme.

A processor-readable storage medium having one or more instructions which, when executed by at least one processor or state machine of a processing circuit for activating trigger data at a device, cause the processing circuit to:

• receive a plurality of trigger data via a serial bus, wherein, if activated, each one of the plurality of trigger data respectively enables a corresponding operation to be performed at the device;
• receive a plurality of activation data via the serial bus, wherein each one of the plurality of activation data respectively corresponds to each one of the plurality of trigger data;
• detect an activation scheme for activating a respective trigger data of the plurality of trigger data based on activation data corresponding to the respective trigger data;
• and
• activate the respective trigger data according to the detected activation scheme.
