Abstract
An electronic device includes a processor coupled to a memory device, through a data bus to receive and transmit bits on the data bus. The processor is configured to transmit a message including a first bit indicative of controlling the data bus, address bits indicative of an address identifying the memory device, and a second bit indicative of whether the processor intends to read data from or write data to the memory device; and transmit a third bit indicative of a mode of operation of the memory device.
