Method and apparatus for universal program controlled bus architecture

摘要

The system and method of the present invention provides an innovative bus system of lines (705) which can be programmed and to provide data, control and address information to the logic circuits (701-702) interconnected by the bus system. This flexible structure and process enables a configurable system to be created to programmably connect one or more logic circuits, such as megacells (701-702). The programmability of the bus system enables the cascading of multiple megacells in an arbitrary fashion (i.e., wide, deep or both) and the sharing of common lines for system level communication.
