Abstract
A system may comprise a condition detection system that includes change circuitry configured to detect a change for at least one predetermined bit of an N-bit bus, where N is a positive integer, and to provide a corresponding change signal indicative of the detected condition. Match circuitry is configured to detect a match condition for up to a selected subset of predetermined bits of the N-bit bus and to provide a corresponding match signal indicative of the detected condition. Selection circuitry is programmable to provide a selected one of the change signal and the match signal as a corresponding output signal.
