<p>A bus architecture system is disclosed. The bus architecture system is formed within an integrated circuit device 30 having a communications port 34 configured to permit interface with electronics systems not illustrated. The port 34 connects to a communications module 32 forming part of a sequential bus arrangement incorporating a number of modules 36A-36E of the device 30 and a number of uni-directional interconnections 38A-38F arranged between sequential ones of those modules 36A-36E. The bus architecture system provides for the configuration of an ASIC prior to actual operation of the ASIC, and also for examination of the operation of the ASIC for debugging purposes. <IMAGE></p> |
