ABSTRACT:
An integrated circuit chip, particularly a southbridge, is provided that has a first and a second circuit unit. Each circuit unit can send requests to the other one and send back a response when receiving a request that requires a response. The first circuit unit can store data relating to a request to be sent, and the second circuit unit cannot store data relating to a received request. Thus, an on-chip interface is provided that may increase the overall system performance and that may support split transaction.
