Abstract

See full text

A bus system is disclosed for establishing signal connections to a plurality of functional units standing in operative connection to the integrated circuit, which are designed to generate and/or process digital and/or analog signals. The system includes a digital bus and an analog bus. The inclusion of an analog bus in an integrated circuit in addition to a digital bus has the result of complete modularity of the integrated circuit with regard to the use of a wide variety of functional units, so that the integrated circuit can be used in practically any way desired. In addition, because of the presence of an additional analog bus, the analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters normally present according to the prior art may be omitted, resulting in a corresponding saving of space and power.
