An improved extended cardbus/PC card controller (20) incorporating proprietary Split-Bridge(TM) high speed serial communication technology for interconnecting a conventional parallel system bus via a high speed serial link with a remote peripheral device. The extend cardbus/PC card controller is adapted to interface the parallel system bus, which may be PCI, PCMCIA, integrated, or some other parallel I/O bus architecture, with peripheral devices via PC cards, and now optionally via a high speed serial link using the proprietary serial Split-Bridge(TM) technology. The serial Split-Bridge(TM) technology provides real time interconnection between the parallel system bus and the remote device which may also be based on a parallel system data bus architecture, over a serial link, which serial link appears to be transparent between the buses and thus facilitates high speed data transfer exceeding data rates of 1.0 GigaHertz.
