    Abstract: A data processing system can include a first IC including one or more A/D converters that receive analog inputs from one or more sensors and generate corresponding digital data, a second IC including one or more processing elements that operate on the digital data, and communication circuitry, coupled between the one or more A/D converters and processing elements, that includes a packetizer on the first IC that receives samples and sample data from the one or more A/D converters and assembles each sample and corresponding sample data into a packet, a primary physical interface on the first IC that communicates the packet to a secondary physical interface on the second IC, and a de-packetizer that on the second IC that receives the packet, de-packetizes it, and delivers the sample and sample data to the one or more processing elements.
