  2. Bus (computing) - Wikipedia

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

    The internal bus (also known as the internal data bus, memory bus or system bus) connects internal components of a computer to the mother board. Local buses connect the CPU and memory to the expansion bus, which in turn connects the computer to peripherals. Bus systems such as the SATA ports in modern computers support multiple peripherals ...

  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 ...

    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.

  5. 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.

  6. Datapath - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datapath

    A data path is the ALU, the set of registers, and the CPU's internal bus(es) that allow data to flow between them. [2] A microarchitecture data path organized around a single bus. The simplest design for a CPU uses one common internal bus. Efficient addition requires a slightly more complicated three-internal-bus structure. [3]

  7. 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.

  8. Multibus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multibus

    The standard Multibus form factor was a 12-inch-wide (300 mm), 6.75-inch-deep (171 mm) circuit board with two ejection levers on the front edge. The board had two buses: a wider P1 bus with pin assignment defined by the Multibus specification and a second smaller P2 bus was also defined as a private bus.

  9. 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.
