Abstract

A bus device is used with a computer system. In the bus device, a bus-interfaced host performs data transmission in a first mode in response to a first command resulting from certain software execution of the computer system. A bridge device is coupled to and communicable with the bus-interfaced host via a first interface according to a first transmission protocol, and coupled to and communicable with the bus-interfaced device via a second interface according to a second transmission protocol. A bus-interfaced device performs data transmission in a second mode different from the first mode in response to a second command resulting from certain modification of the first command.
