Abstract
Embodiments of a peripheral component are described herein. Embodiments provide alternatives to the use of an external bridge integrated circuit (IC) architecture. For example, an embodiment multiplexes a peripheral bus such that multiple processors in one peripheral component can use one peripheral interface slot without requiring an external bridge IC. Embodiments are usable with known bus protocols.
