An embodiment of an electronic system may be provided so as to have superior coupling by implementing a communication mechanism that provides at least for horizontal communication for example, on the basis of wired and/or wireless communication channels, in the system. Hence, by enhancing vertical and horizontal communication capabilities in the electronic system, a reduced overall size may be achieved, while nevertheless reducing complexity in PCBs coupled to the electronic system. In this manner, overall manufacturing costs and reliability of complex electronic systems may be enhanced.
