The PI Bus is a Bi-directional and MUX'ed interface where there is a 16bit data path to the Rom, 64DD, Flash Ram and SRAM ram chips is used to send both the wanted address and data to and from the RCP. This is not to be confused with the serial EEPROM, CIC and RTC (real time clock) chips that go through the SI interface and PIF chip via the cartage port as well.
