Abstract: An apparatus may include a serial data output port configured to send output data to a electronic device. The apparatus may include a serial data input port configured to receive input data from another electronic device. The apparatus may include a chip select output port configured to send output to the electronic devices connected in a daisy chain. The apparatus may include a interface circuit, configured to determine that a given electronic device is to selectively execute a first command. The interface circuit may be further configured to issue a complex command to the electronic devices connected. The complex command may indicate to the f electronic devices that additional commands are to be selectively executed.

Abstract: An apparatus such as a node in a daisy chain of electronic devices includes a serial data input port receive input from an electronic device in the daisy chain. The apparatus includes a serial data output port to send output to another electronic device in the daisy chain. The apparatus includes a chip select input port configured to receive input from a master control unit, and an interface circuit configured to, in a daisy chain streaming mode, and based on a received command and changed edge of a signal on the chip select input port, repeatedly: read data from a data source of the apparatus to yield data, output the data to the serial data output port, and copy other data received at the serial data input port to the serial data output port after the data.
