Abstract: PURPOSE: To easily realize reliable bus routing structure and to improve its flexibility. CONSTITUTION: Plural parallel bus segments 22a-22h are incorporated to a substrate where a device connector is provided in a module-type bus routing system. The respective end parts of the respective bus segments are connected to the connectors 24a and 24b which are attached to the substrate. Mutual connection between the different bus segments of the substrate is executed by a flexible cable adding a bus conductor which is provided with controlled length and an electric characteristic. A plural personal cards provides various kinds of inter-bus-segment connection states so as to permit the different bus segment to be ended and to be jumper-connected to another segment of the substrate. The different personal card is selected so that the plural bus segments in a certain specified substrate are constituted as a serially connected and single bus or two, four or eight parallel bus.
