Fourth Edition now available!"One of the major benefits of the PCI specification is that it is defined with many engineering disciplines in mind: architecture, protocol, components, board layout, and software. Mindshare's PCI System Architecture is an excellent resource for understanding all these aspects and their interrelationships." -Todd Koelling, Applications Engineer, Intel Corporation; member of the PCI development teamPCI System Architecture describes revision 2.1 of the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus specification, providing a clear, concise explanation of PCI's relationship to the rest of the system. This book has been updated and revised to include in-depth treatment of PCI to PCI bridges, the PCI BIOS, the 66MHz PCI bus, and more. PCI experts Tom Shanley and Don Anderson provide a comprehensive treatment of the bus including: * reflected-wave switching * shared resource acquisition * signal groups 64-bit extension * bus arbitration * add-in cards and connectors * command set * configuration * read and write transfers * expansion ROMs * premature transaction termination * cacheable memory support This book also examines the VLSI Technology VL82C59x chipset to illustrate an example PCI bus implementation. If you design or test hardware or software that involves the PCI bus, PCI System Architecture is an essential, time-saving tool. The PC System Architecture Series is a crisply written and comprehensive set of guides to the most important PC hardware standards. Each title explains from a programmer's perspective the architecture, features, and operations of systems built using one particular type of chip or hardware specification. 0201409933B04062001

Product Description: The computer bus is the foundation of the modern computer. Without busses, a computer would just be a bundle of components. As more and more equipment becomes interface driven-either through controllers or directly to and from PCs-the question of which bus to use becomes increasingly important...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: Microcomputer busses are conductors that relay information through a computer system. This book describes the six most popular bus architectures, including the IBM PC, VME bus and NuBus. The book is divided into three parts comprising a comparison of busses to enable designers to select the most appropriate one for their application; complete documentation on individual busses; and design examples (methods and problem solving)...read more

Product Description: This handbook explains digital busses, the physical means by which data are collected and transferred to produce high performance systems. It describes the most useful busses currently available, including Motorola VME bus, Multibus 1, Apple/Nubus, DEC busses and IBM PC bus...read more

Product Description: The aim of this book is to describe microprocessor bus systems and interfacing in general and to describe the STE bus in particular. It is based on three courses given to 2nd/3rd year students of Cybernetics and it is assumed that the reader knows about Boolean logic.
