Embodiments may include systems and methods for communication including a plurality of controllers and coordination circuitry, to control communication to or from an interface circuitry. The interface circuitry includes a plurality of pins, where a first group of pins of the plurality of pins is for a first communication protocol, and a second group of pins of the plurality of pins is for a second communication protocol. A first controller is coupled to the interface circuitry through the first group of pins, and a second controller is coupled to the interface circuitry through the second group of pins. The coordination circuitry is to select the first controller or the second controller to control communication to or from the interface circuitry. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
