Bus interface slicing mechanism allowing for a control/data path slice
摘要
A bus interface is partitionable into at least two slices. Each slice interfaces a respective subset of data from a computer device to a system bus. Each slice also receives a corresponding subset of control information and a complete set of address information from the computer device. Moreover, each slice may be implemented on a single integrated circuit chip, which thus handles both data and control functions.
