Silicon Labs EFM8/C8051: Does it support SMBus ARP (Address Resolution Protocol)?

EFM8/C8051

SMBus revision 3.0 supports Address Resolution Protocol (ARP). This is a function that dynamically assigns a unique slave address and resolves the conflict when there are multiple slave devices with the same slave address.

The EFM8/C8051 SMBus is designed to comply with rev.1.1, so it does not support ARP.
