Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) is a feature of HDMI designed to allow users to command and control devices connected through HDMI
Hardware
CEC Bus can be found in PIN 13 of the HDMI connector:
Protocol
It is a one-wire bidirectional serial bus that is based on the CENELEC standard AV.link protocol to perform remote control functions.
CEC is a separate electrical signal from the other HDMI signals. This allows a device to disable its high-speed HDMI circuitry in sleep mode, but be woken up by CEC. It is a single shared bus, which is directly connected between all HDMI ports on a device, so it can flow through a device which is completely powered off (not just asleep).
The bus is electrically identical to the AV.link protocol, but CEC adds a detailed higher-level message protocol.
The bus is an open-collector line, somewhat like I²C, passively pulled up to +3.3 V, and driven low to transmit a bit.
