1. A method of loading configuration data after a reset condition into a host adapter integrated circuit from an external device, comprising:
receiving a reset signal on a first terminal of a host adapter integrated circuit, said host adapter integrated circuit being operatively coupled to
. , ,
Gates, Claim 1
a host; and
upon a deassertion of said reset signal, automatically outputting a clock signal from a second terminal of said host adapter integrated circuitto said external device such that configuration data is clocked out of said external device and into a third terminal of said host adapterintegrated circuit, said reset signal remaining deasserted throughout said loading of said configuration data, said configuration datanot being transferred from said host to said host adapter integrated circuit.
