Methods, apparatus, and articles of manufacture to address devices coupled to a network bus

A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions to cause programmable circuitry of a device to at least:

• cause an analog-to-digital converter to sample a first voltage at a first node on a bus;
• cause communication circuitry to set a second node on the bus to a second voltage;
• increment a counter when the first voltage does not satisfy a threshold value;
• and
• when the first voltage satisfies the threshold value, assign an address for the device based on a value of the counter.

A system comprising:

• a bus including a resistor coupled in series with the bus, the resistor including a first terminal and a second terminal;
• a first responder device including a first terminal coupled to the first terminal of the resistor and a second terminal coupled to the second terminal of the resistor, wherein the first responder device is configurable to:
• sample a first voltage at the first terminal of the resistor;
• set the second terminal of the resistor to a second voltage;
• and
• when the first voltage satisfies a threshold value, assign an address for the first responder device based on a value of a first counter;
• and
• a second responder device including a first terminal coupled to the second terminal of the resistor, wherein the second responder device is configurable to:
• sample the second voltage at the second terminal of the resistor;
• and
• increment a second counter when the second voltage does not satisfy the threshold value.
