Abstract
Novel system and protocol for controlling a sequence of events. The sequencing system has a master circuit for providing sequencing information defining a sequence of events using a sequencing signal, and at least one slave circuit responsive to the sequencing signal for producing at least one event signal defining an event. The master and slave circuits are configured for providing a bidirectional transfer of the sequencing information via a single wire.
