Abstract
A method of dynamically interfacing an application processor with a plurality of peripheral ports is shown, including the use of an expanded memory interface for controlling a plurality of memory components for an application processor external to the interface. The application processor is connected to the expanded memory interface, which is in turn coupled to at least one status port to facilitate communication between the application processor and the status port.
