  3. Host controller interface (USB, Firewire) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Host_controller_interface...

    Open Host Controller Interface (OHCI) [1] is an open standard.. Die shot of a VIA VT6307 Integrated Host Controller used for IEEE 1394A communication. When applied to an IEEE 1394 (also known as FireWire; i.LINK or Lynx) card, OHCI means that the card supports a standard interface to the PC and can be used by the OHCI IEEE 1394 drivers that come with all modern operating systems.

    An IEEE 1284 36-pin female on a circuit board. In the 1970s, Centronics developed the now-familiar printer parallel port that soon became a de facto standard.Centronics had introduced the first successful low-cost seven-wire print head [citation needed], which used a series of solenoids to pull the individual metal pins to strike a ribbon and the paper.

  7. SCSI connector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCSI_connector

    SCSI-1 card with an external Centronics port which requires a terminator, from an Acorn computer. Old Macintosh DB-25 SCSI port (narrow) Apple used DB-25 connectors, which, having only 25 pins rather than 50, were smaller and less expensive to make, but decreased signal integrity (increasing crosstalk ) [ citation needed ] and cannot be used ...

  8. Display driver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Display_driver

    The display driver may itself be an application-specific microcontroller and may incorporate RAM, Flash memory, EEPROM and/or ROM. Fixed ROM may contain firmware and display fonts. A notable example of a display driver IC is the Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller. Other controllers are KS0108, SSD1815 (graphics capable) and ST7920 (graphics capable)

  9. Tandy Graphics Adapter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tandy_Graphics_Adapter

    TGA graphics are built into the motherboards of Tandy computers. The PCjr uses a custom monitor with a unique 18-pin plug, [15] but an adapter (with the same DE-9 connector and pinout as IBM's CGA/EGA) can connect it to the IBM Color Display or similar 4-bit digital RGBI monitor. [16] The Tandy 1000 provides the DE-9 connector directly. [17]
