US Patent 10540226 Write technique for a bus interface system

Embodiments of a bus interface system are disclosed. In one embodiment, the bus interface system includes a master bus controller and a slave bus controller coupled to a bus line. The master bus controller is configured to generate a first set of data pulses along the bus line representing a payload segment. The slave bus controller is configured to decode the first set of data pulses representing the payload segment into a decoded payload segment. The slave bus controller is then configured to perform a first error check on the decoded payload segment. Furthermore, the slave bus controller is configured to generate an acknowledgment signal along the bus line so that the acknowledgement signal indicates that the decoded payload segment passed the first error check. In this manner, the master bus controller can determine that the slave bus controller received an accurate copy of the payload segment.
