Abstract:
1. An electronic communication system, comprising: at least first and second communication units which are connected to one another by means of at least one first data line, and a data transmission protocol wherein at least one defined communication process comprises a transmission from the first communication unit to at least the second communication unit via at least the first data line of at least five distinct packets including: a data packet including data, a synchronization packet for synchronizing communication between the first and second communication units, an identification packet for identifying the second communication unit or an event to be executed by the second communication unit, a command packet for instructing the second communication unit to perform at least one of a read and a write operation, and an address packet specifying at least one memory address of a plurality of memory addresses in the second communication unit where the at least one of the read and the write operation will be performed, wherein when the command packet instructs the second communication unit to perform the read operation, data is read from the at least one memory address and transmitted to the first communication unit, and wherein when the command packet instructs the second communication unit to perform the write operation, the data in the data packet is stored at the at least one memory address.
