AN INTERFACE FOR DATA TRANSFER BETWEEN INTEGRATED CIRCUITS

摘要

An interface is provided for transmitting data between integrated circuits comprising an input buffer associated with one circuit for receiving and storing data cells for transmission to another circuit, a data bus for transmitting data cells stored in the buffer from one circuit to another circuit in response to a departure request, a controller for controlling the transmission of code associated with each data cell enabling errors in the data to be detected, and a second bus, separate from the data bus, for transmitting the associated code from one circuit to the other.
