I made 'on the fly' connection simply by holding two pins with fingers for 20 seconds. That was enough to perform the mod

i check it and the VRM is TPS53659, 4pins only one has 30~40ohm to ground, is any another way to find pin fuction?
SDA(pin 26)
SCL(pin 24)
trace this to a header or solder at resistors near it (series resistors)
nobody mentioned resistors to ground.
ok its successfully to connect to my mcp2221a and be Identified as TPS53679
using your exe to scan and found device at addr 54~57,62,63,66,67
probably TPS53679 found at addr 60 and 61
what should i do next?
before i do that, is any command to check how much current does it support now?
i see someone said it support 255a as factory configuration, i dont sure what will happen if i execute this with it original supported...
if the factory ICC_MAX is 255A, you do NOT need the mod. any 'C' OEM or 8175M/8124M will work.
A sensible way to approach this whole modification can be achieved by asking yourself the following questions:
Do I have (at least) the slightest idea what I am doing here?
Do I know (at least) some technical details of what is going on?
Can I afford to kill some hardware (either directly, by doing something wrong with the mod, or killing hardware in the long-run)?
If the answer to one of the above is NOT a clear "Yes", then I would suggest, that you just don't do it.

I guess you did not really understand the intent of the above posting. Those questions were not meant for you, but anyone, thinking about maybe trying this modification.
Point being: If you cannot afford to damage something, don't do it.
As you pointed out, the same principle applies to lots of topics. But especially on this one, as I intended to emphasize. In this case you (as the person attempting this mod) are modifying hardware on a quite low level and are running VRMs (most likely) out of spec.
I am no friend of poeple running things way out of spec, when they don't even realize, that they are doing exactly that. This attitude of mine, might slightly be influenced by my job.
Maybe it is clearer now.

Hi guys,
i want to thank to RolloZ170 for support
I was able to make my X11SPI-TF to work with 8272CL using Adafruit MCP2221A

Dear RolloZ170,Sorry to bother you again, this is the problem now. The PXE1610C chip on my motherboard is broken, and I want to buy a new chip to replace it, but I cannot back up the programs in the old chip. I checked the relevant information and found that programming this chip requires a relevant Infineon programmer.I think since the program you wrote can access and rewrite the programs inside the chip, can this program also backup the programs inside the chip? Then write it back into the new chip.
I am looking forward to your reply very much.
The software 'Powercode5.0 for OPUS' is not available to ordinary users, and it seems that they need to apply to Infineon in the name of the company.

no this is too complex. you need to use the Prrimarion ( now Infineon ) PowerCode software and activation key.
PM you.
some motherboard r640 r740 date 2019 not work, i don't know how to fix it
mod code runing ok, but insert cpu not work, server not start
Code:
The MCP2221a device is connected.
ReadBlock( Page00,cmdFD,1)=B3
ReadBlock( Page4F,cmd1A,1)=00
retry#1
ReadBlock( Page4F,cmd32,2)=1504
PXE1610C found: starting modd
WriteBlock( Page3F,cmd27,7C B3)
ReadBlock( Page20,cmd73,2) ICC_MAX=FF00
ICC_MAX already 255A - modification skipped.
