Abstract
A method for improving the speed and efficiency of transmitting data between two components in which the transmitted data is sent, at least partly, through a serial bus is shown. According to the method, the fields in the data frames being transmitted between the components are of a fixed length regardless of the amount of data that the receiving device can receive at one time. The data bits of the fixed-length frame correspond to the signals accepted as input by the receiving component.
