Abstract
Performing transactions on a bus by first generating a sequence of commands by an initiator module and queuing the sequence of commands in a queue module. A first one of the sequence of commands is sent from the queue module via the bus to a target module. The queue module is paused while waiting for a response via the bus from the target module; however, the initiator may continue processing another task. The queue module repeatedly sends a next command via the bus to the target module and waits for a response via the bus from the target module until a last one of the sequence of commands is sent to the target module. The queue module provides only a single acknowledgement to the initiator module after the sequence of commands has been transferred to the target module.
