  2. STD Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/STD_Bus

    A focus of the STD bus was its ability to build a system using the exact bus cards required for an application. The compact size of a card made the STD bus system more adaptable to various applications than the contemporary computer buses of the mid-1980s such as the S-100 and the SS-50 , because it could use servo control cards along with a ...

  3. PCI Express - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express

    While in early development, PCIe was initially referred to as HSI (for High Speed Interconnect), and underwent a name change to 3GIO (for 3rd Generation I/O) before finally settling on its PCI-SIG name PCI Express. A technical working group named the Arapaho Work Group (AWG) drew up the standard. For initial drafts, the AWG consisted only of ...

  4. 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]

    The VISA standard [1] includes specifications for communication with resources (usually, but not always, instruments) over T&M-specific I/O interfaces such as GPIB and VXI. There are also some specifications for T&M-specific protocols over PC-standard I/O, such as HiSLIP [ 2 ] or VXI-11 [ 3 ] (over TCP/IP ) and USBTMC [ 4 ] (over USB ).

  6. Peripheral Component Interconnect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_Component...

    Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) [3] is a local computer bus for attaching hardware devices in a computer and is part of the PCI Local Bus standard. The PCI bus supports the functions found on a processor bus but in a standardized format that is independent of any given processor's native bus.

  7. RS-485 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-485

    RS-485 standard conformant drivers provide a differential output of a minimum 1.5 V across a 54-Ω load, whereas standard conformant receivers detect a differential input down to 200 mV. The two values provide a sufficient margin for a reliable data transmission even under severe signal degradation across the cable and connectors.

  8. 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 ...

  9. Industry Standard Architecture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry_Standard_Architecture

    It was an 8-bit bus based on the I/O bus of the IBM System/23 Datamaster system - it used the same physical connector, and a similar signal protocol and pinout. [3] A 16-bit version, the IBM AT bus, was introduced with the release of the IBM PC/AT in 1984. The AT bus was a mostly backward-compatible extension of the PC bus—the AT bus ...
