A method is described for addressing units (FU1, FU2, FU3) amongst a plurality of units having different addresses (ADD1, ADD2, ADD3) by use of an address word (AW), the addresses and the address word being composed of address elements. A tag word (TW) is transmitted to the plurality of units, the tag word defining which address elements of the address word are significant (S) and which address elements of the address word are non significant (X). The address word and the addresses of the units are compared and, a unit is addressed if the significant elements of the address word match the corresponding elements of the unit's address.
