The Fetch Interface provides a mechanism for the controller to request data from an external source.

During error correction and error classification, the controller may need to fetch a frame of configuration data or a frame of essential bit data. The controller is designed to write a command describing the desired data to the Fetch Interface in binary. The external source must use the information to fetch the data and return it to the Fetch Interface.
