An interface for accessing a bank of registers is described. A controller is coupled to receive address information, read information and write information. The device control register interface includes: a data bus for receiving data, pointer information and operation delineation information; a decoder coupled to receive the read information, the write information, the pointer information and the operation delineation information, where the decoder is configured to provide activation signaling responsive to information received; and the bank of registers coupled to the decoder to receive the activation signaling and coupled to the data bus for receiving the data, where the address information is for the bank or registers and where a single address is used for accessing all registers in the bank of registers.
