INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17972679 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS, AND COMMUNICATION CONTROL METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an information processing system that aims to address problems such as increased cost and delayed program transfer in systems with multiple integrated circuit chips. The system includes multiple chips, each with multiple communication units that can be initialized through a common setting terminal. The first chip, set to a first mode, establishes a communication connection with the second chip, set to a second mode, through one of the initialized communication units.
- The information processing system includes multiple integrated circuit chips.
- Each chip has multiple communication units.
- The communication units are initialized through a common setting terminal.
- The first chip, set to a first mode, establishes a communication connection with the second chip, set to a second mode.
- The communication connection is established through one of the initialized communication units.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Information processing systems with multiple integrated circuit chips.
- Systems requiring efficient communication between different modes of operation.
- Complex systems that benefit from simplified initialization and communication processes.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Increased cost due to a higher number of terminals for chip interface settings.
- Delayed program transfer between integrated circuit chips.
Benefits of this technology:
- Cost reduction by using a common setting terminal for initializing communication units.
- Improved efficiency and speed of program transfer between chips.
- Simplified initialization and communication processes for integrated circuit chips.
Original Abstract Submitted
Information processing systems including a plurality of integrated circuit chips have had problems such as an increased cost due to an increase in the number of terminals related to settings of an interface between the chips and delayed program transfer. An information processing system is provided in which a plurality of integrated circuit chips each include a plurality of communication units to be initialized by a common setting terminal. A processing execution unit of a first integrated circuit chip set to a first mode starts establishing a communication connection through one of the initialized communication units to one of the communication units of a second integrated circuit chip set to a second mode.
