  2. Direct memory access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_memory_access

    The DMA command is issued by specifying a pair of a local address and a remote address: for example when a SPE program issues a put DMA command, it specifies an address of its own local memory as the source and a virtual memory address (pointing to either the main memory or the local memory of another SPE) as the target, together with a block size.

  3. Intel 8237 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_8237

    Intel 8237A-5, used on the original IBM PC motherboard Pinout. Intel 8237 is a direct memory access (DMA) controller, a part of the MCS 85 microprocessor family. It enables data transfer between memory and the I/O with reduced load on the system's main processor by providing the memory with control signals and memory address information during the DMA transfer.

  4. WDMA (computer) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WDMA_(computer)

    The Word DMA (WDMA) interface is a method for transferring data between a computer (through an Advanced Technology Attachment (ATA) controller) and an ATA device; it was the fastest method until Ultra Direct Memory Access (UDMA) was implemented.

  5. Scratchpad memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratchpad_memory

    Sony's PS2 Emotion Engine includes a 16 KB scratchpad, to and from which DMA transfers could be issued to its GS, and main memory. Cell's SPEs are restricted purely to working in their "local-store", relying on DMA for transfers from/to main memory and between local stores, much like a scratchpad. In this regard, additional benefit is derived ...

  6. Dia (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dia_(software)

    Dia has special objects to help draw entity-relationship models, Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams, flowcharts, network diagrams, and simple electrical circuits. It is also possible to add support for new shapes by writing simple XML files, using a subset of Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to draw the shape.

  7. Motorola 6800 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorola_6800

    The 6800 ("sixty-eight hundred") is an 8-bit microprocessor designed and first manufactured by Motorola in 1974. The MC6800 microprocessor was part of the M6800 Microcomputer System (later dubbed 68xx [1]) that also included serial and parallel interface ICs, RAM, ROM and other support chips.

  8. Input–output memory management unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input–output_memory...

    In computing, an input–output memory management unit (IOMMU) is a memory management unit (MMU) connecting a direct-memory-access–capable (DMA-capable) I/O bus to the main memory. Like a traditional MMU, which translates CPU -visible virtual addresses to physical addresses , the IOMMU maps device-visible virtual addresses (also called device ...

  9. Programmed input–output - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Programmed_input–output

    Programmed input–output (also programmable input/output, programmed input/output, programmed I/O, PIO) is a method of data transmission, via input/output (I/O), between a central processing unit (CPU) and a peripheral device, [1] such as a Parallel ATA storage device.
