Abstract
A device is provided, and includes a first bus; a first circuit and a first bus unit circuit, a second circuit and a second bus unit circuit. The first circuit is coupled to the first bus through the first bus unit circuit, and the first bus unit circuit passes a first output signal from the first circuit as a first bus data signal on the first bus. The second circuit is coupled to the first bus through the second bus unit circuit, and the second bus unit circuit performs an OR operation between the first bus data signal and a second bus data signal on the first bus to generate a first input signal to the second circuit.
