Embodiments of various methods, devices and systems are described herein that use a unified bus communication protocol. One such device comprises an interface for sending and receiving signals, and a mux and sync engine coupled to the interface and configured to determine time slots for sent and received signals according to a unified bitstream frame format. The unified bitstream frame format comprises a plurality of frame channels for transmitting data in a bitstream mode of communication such that data from the frame channels are time-multiplexed across the frame channels one bit at a time, wherein one of the frame channels is allocated as a control channel comprising individual control bits from control data, and at least one of the frame channels is allocated as a virtual frame channel comprising individual data bits taken from digital word data. |
