Abstract
In a data processing system that processes serial data transferred from a processor formed as one chip and transmits the resultant data to another chip, a data output processing unit that processes serial data transferred from a single processor or a plurality of processors comprises a bank designation serial data holder that temporarily holds bank designation serial data with which an address of a bank is designated and which is transferred from the processor, and a bank designation serial data comparator that compares a designative value represented by current bank designation serial data, which is currently held, with a designative value represented by the last bank designation serial data that is immediately previously held. If the two designative values are verified to agree with each other, the current bank designation serial data is not transmitted but only current register designation serial data with which a register is designated is transmitted. On the other hand, a data processing method in accordance with the present invention to be implemented using the data processing system, a computer-readable storage medium in which a program for implementing the data processing method in accordance with the present invention in a computer is stored, and a disk drive to which the present invention is applied, are also provided.
