AI Technical Summary
Technical Problem
There is a demand for further shortening communication time between electronic devices.
Method used
A communication system where a first electronic device determines the type of a second device based on a potential generated when wired-connected, prepares data including its device information, and initiates communication after completion, using I2C communication to reduce initialization time.
Benefits of technology
Reduces communication time by allowing the second device to acquire the first device's information with a single command, optimizing initialization processes.

Abstract
There is a demand for further reductions in communication time between electronic devices. [Solution] The communication system includes a first electronic device that can be wired to another electronic device, and a second electronic device that can be wired to the first electronic device. The first electronic device includes a determination unit that acquires the potential generated when wired to another electronic device and determines the type of the other electronic device based on the acquired potential, a processing unit that determines that the other electronic device is the second electronic device and prepares data including device information of the first electronic device based on a request from the second electronic device, and a communication unit that, after the data preparation is complete, starts communication with the second electronic device and causes the second electronic device to acquire the device information of the first electronic device. The second electronic device performs processing based on the device information of the first electronic device.
