ABSTRACT:
A system for communicating signals within a digital network without the aid of an array of separate signal lines or of the system data bus. The network communication system 10 of the present invention is operative in accordance with a time-sliced protocol to communicate signal information among a set of digital modules 1. The communication system 10 includes a driver network for transmitting signal information to a first interface circuit 14 in communication with a first 22 of said modules during a selected interval of an interval cycle. The first interface circuit 14 includes an input network 44 for receiving the transmitted information during the selected interval. The inventive network communication system 10 further includes a kickstart circuit 30 for initiating an interval cycle upon the transmission of signal information within the network 10, or upon the execution of a maximum (Nth) interval of a preceding interval cycle.
