Abstract
A technique is described for transmitting events over three or more conductors in which a sequence of activity of the conductors for information transfer is provided. To transfer information, the conductors are placed in an active state in a sequential manner, and then returned to an inactive state after each has been active in a time period short enough to prevent all conductors from being active at the same time.
