Abstract
A method of interfacing multiple requests using a request hold register, a multiplexer and a snapshot register with multiple requests directed into both the request hold register and a multiplexer which prevents forwarding the requests to the snapshot register if the snapshot register is not in a receiving condition but if the snapshot register is in a receiving condition allows the request to immediately enter snapshot register without having to wait for the next clock cycle.
