Abstract
A virtual wire system includes a source device, a target device, and a mesh interface connecting the source device and the target device. One or more mesh messages are transmitted over the mesh interface from the source device to the target device, and the one or more mesh messages indicate a change in a value of a signal level at the source device. The source device may include a plurality of virtual wire sources, a virtual wire encoder, and a virtual wire arbiter operatively coupled to the plurality of virtual wire sources and the virtual wire encoder. The virtual wire arbiter is configured to determine whether information from a virtual wire source should be transmitted to the virtual wire encoder. The virtual wire encoder is configured to receive information from the virtual wire arbiter, combine the information into a single virtual wire message, and transmit the single virtual wire message to a first mesh interface component in the source device.
