  2. Bus network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_network

    In a bus network, every station will receive all network traffic, and the traffic generated by each station has equal transmission priority. [3] A bus network forms a single network segment and collision domain. In order for nodes to share the bus, they use a medium access control technology such as carrier-sense multiple access (CSMA) or a bus ...

  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. Bus contention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bus_contention

    Bus contention is an undesirable state in computer design where more than one device on a bus attempts to place values on it at the same time.. Bus contention is the kind of telecommunication contention that occurs when all communicating devices communicate directly with each other through a single shared channel, and contrasted with "network contention" that occurs when communicating devices ...

  5. Network topology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_topology

    Network topology is the arrangement of the elements (links, nodes, etc.) of a communication network. [1] [2] Network topology can be used to define or describe the arrangement of various types of telecommunication networks, including command and control radio networks, [3] industrial fieldbusses and computer networks.

  6. 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.

  7. System Management Bus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_Management_Bus

    The System Management Bus (SMBus or SMB) is a single-ended simple two-wire bus for the purpose of lightweight communication. Most commonly it is found in chipsets of computer motherboards for communication with the power source for ON/OFF instructions.

  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. 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 ( IP core ) interconnected by buses using simple and clear rules, that allow the implementation of an embedded system ( SoC ).
