Selective Transfer of Data Including a Priority Byte - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18497436 titled 'Selective Transfer of Data Including a Priority Byte
Simplified Explanation
A data responder can decide whether to prioritize a request for a priority byte to be transmitted ahead of other bytes on a bus. This decision involves transferring a block of data across multiple clock cycles, with the priority byte either transferred in the first clock cycle or later.
- The data responder determines whether to grant a request for a priority byte to be prioritized for transmission.
- The priority byte can be transferred in the first clock cycle or in a later clock cycle.
- The data responder may receive the request from a data requestor and signal the grant of the request by asserting a signal on a wire connected to the data requestor.
Key Features and Innovation
- Prioritization of a priority byte for transmission on a bus.
- Transfer of data across multiple clock cycles.
- Granting or ignoring requests for priority byte transmission.
- Signaling the grant of the request to the data requestor.
Potential Applications
This technology could be used in systems where certain data needs to be transmitted with higher priority than others, such as in real-time communication systems or critical data transfer applications.
Problems Solved
- Efficient prioritization of data transmission.

Original Abstract Submitted
A data responder may determine a selection between granting a request for a priority byte to be prioritized for transmission ahead of other bytes via a bus and ignoring the request. Granting the request may include transferring a block of bytes of data across multiple clock cycles with the priority byte transferred in a first clock cycle before other clock cycles of the multiple clock cycles. Ignoring the request may include transferring the block across multiple clock cycles with the priority byte transferred in a clock cycle after the first clock cycle. The data responder may receive the request from a data requestor. The data responder may assert a signal on a wire, connected to the data requestor, to indicate a grant of the request and a transfer of the priority byte in the first clock cycle.
