  2. Bus (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_(computing)

    Four PCI Express bus card slots (from top to second from bottom: ×4, ×16, ×1 and ×16), compared to a 32-bit conventional PCI bus card slot (very bottom). In computer architecture, a bus (historically also called a data highway [1] or databus) is a communication system that transfers data between components inside a computer or between computers. [2]

  3. System bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_bus

    A system bus is a single computer bus that connects the major components of a computer system, combining the functions of a data bus to carry information, an address bus to determine where it should be sent or read from, and a control bus to determine its operation. The technique was developed to reduce costs and improve modularity, and ...

  4. Control bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_bus

    In computer architecture, a control bus is part of the system bus and is used by CPUs for communicating with other devices within the computer. While the address bus carries the information about the device with which the CPU is communicating and the data bus carries the actual data being processed, the control bus carries commands from the CPU and returns status signals from the devices.

  5. Transport triggered architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_triggered...

    In computer architecture, a transport triggered architecture (TTA) is a kind of processor design in which programs directly control the internal transport buses of a processor. Computation happens as a side effect of data transports: writing data into a triggering port of a functional unit triggers the functional unit to start a computation.

  6. Industry Standard Architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry_Standard_Architecture

    Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) is the 16-bit internal bus of IBM PC/AT and similar computers based on the Intel 80286 and its immediate successors during the 1980s. The bus was (largely) backward compatible with the 8-bit bus of the 8088 -based IBM PC , including the IBM PC/XT as well as IBM PC compatibles .

    VPX computer bus standard - V -VME and P -PCI and X the extents for both buses standards. VXI: 1987 [13] 160 MByte/s [14] Multivendor standard for automated testing expansion cards. Working group is VXIConsortium.

  8. Simple Bus Architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_Bus_Architecture

    The Simple Bus Architecture [1] (SBA) is a form of computer architecture. It is made up software tools and intellectual property cores interconnected by buses using simple and clear rules, that allow the implementation of an embedded system . Basic templates are provided to accelerate design.

  9. VMEbus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMEbus

    The current VME64 includes a full 64-bit bus in 6U-sized cards and 32-bit in 3U cards. The VME64 protocol has a typical performance of 40 MB /s. [ 3 ] Other associated standards have added hot-swapping ( plug-and-play ) in VME64x , smaller 'IP' cards that plug into a single VMEbus card, and various interconnect standards for linking VME systems ...
