    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interface_bit_rates

    This is a list of interface bit rates, is a measure of information transfer rates, or digital bandwidth capacity, at which digital interfaces in a computer or network can communicate over various kinds of buses and channels. The distinction can be arbitrary between a computer bus, often closer in space, and larger telecommunications networks.

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

    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] It encompasses both hardware (e.g., wires, optical fiber) and software, including communication protocols. [3] At its core, a bus is a shared ...

    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 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte

    The byte is a unit of digital information that most commonly consists of eight bits.Historically, the byte was the number of bits used to encode a single character of text in a computer [1] [2] and for this reason it is the smallest addressable unit of memory in many computer architectures.
