+The problem with travelling CE, is that it is only useful when one
+single input signal is enough to implement the pipelining. In addition
+to that, the travelling CE does not allow for the next pipeline stage to
+communicate that it is busy with an operation. The idea, therefore, is
+to have a `STB` signal, and a `BUSY` signal, the former saying that the
+data is ready, and the latter saying that the module is busy.
