1. An electronic device, comprising:
- a processor coupled to a memory device, through a data bus to receive and transmit bits on the data bus, the processor being configured to;
transmit a message including a first bit indicative of controlling the data bus, address bits indicative of an address identifying the memory device, and a second bit indicative of whether the processor intends to read data from or write data to the memory device; and
transmit a third bit indicative of a mode of operation of the memory device.
