  • Interface comprising message and protocol processors for interfacing digital data with a bus network
    Patent number: 4858112
    Abstract: A network interface equipment for a bus network employs separate processors and random-access memories for handling bus-protocol and data portions of a data packet.

The random-access memories are multiple-ported to permit access by more than one requester with a logic arbitrator to resolve conflicts. A status random-access memory provides communication between the two processors.
