Monday, August 20, 2001 On Hardware Key elements on motherboard Jasjot Singh Narula W HEN a buyer moves out in the market to purchase a personal computer, his thrust is on the processor speed, higher RAM and maximum storage capacity. The buyer often lets the vendor choose the motherboard, who more often than not, gives to the client what suits his own business interest. Motherboard is a multi-layered Printed Circuit Board (PCB) that holds all key components like BIOS, CMOS, Processor, RAM, Interface controllers and ports that are plugged onto the motherboard. It acts as a direct channel for various components to interact and communicate with each other. The first motherboard came into existence with the introduction of desktop PCs by IBM in 1981 that revolutionised the computer industry. In 1982, IBM launched Extended Technology (XT) motherboards and Advanced Technology (AT) motherboards in 1984. These days the ATX (Advanced Technology Extended-style) motherboards, created by Intel in 1995, are in vogue predictably due to their performance. The following are the various components that fit on a system’s motherboard: Do’s while purchasing a motherboard Deal only with a reliable manufacturer.

64. COMPCON '95 Paper 2 IEEE 1394 highspeed serial bus. IEEE 1394 is a hardware and software standardfor transporting data at 100, 200, or 400 megabits per second (Mbps). http://www.skipstone.com/compcon.html

COMPCON '95 This paper was presented by Gary Hoffman, at COMPCON '95 in San Francisco, CA on March 5 to 9, 1995. IEEE 1394: A Ubiquitous Bus Gary Hoffman and Daniel Moore Abstract The IEEE 1394 high-speed serial bus promises to revolutionize the transport of digital data for computers and for professional and consumer electronics products. By providing an inexpensive non-proprietary high-speed method of interconnecting digital devices, IEEE 1394 is a truly universal I/O connection. Its scalable architecture and flexible peer-to-peer topology make 1394 ideal for connecting devices from computers and hard drives, to digital audio and video hardware. Isochronous, just in time delivery, allows low-cost implementations of time-critical multimedia interfaces. This paper examines this IEEE 1394 bus and provides a glimpse into its future potential. 1: Why another interface? Have you looked behind your computer lately? At first it was simple - a parallel port to connect a printer, a serial port to connect a modem, and cables for a display, a keyboard, and possibly a mouse. SCSI added access to external storage devices, a large cable connector, manually set SCSI ID's, and the dreaded terminator. Multimedia added audio and MIDI connectors. Video added a cable for image capture from a video camera or recorder. Besides requiring a great deal of space for the connectors, the growing number of cables overwhelms many users. Legacy I/O interfaces monopolize portable electronics surface space though they are typically only used at a home desk. Notebook computer and Personal Digital Assistants are defined by their connector bulkhead.

65. Modem-HOWTO: Locating The Serial Port: IO Address, IRQs If the serial port is on a card, you may know what bus the card inserts into But unfortunately, there is some PCI serial port hardware that the driver http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Modem-HOWTO-6.html

Next Previous Contents Locating the Serial Port: IO address, IRQs ... What Bus is my Serial Port On? If you need to find a serial port it often helps if you know what bus it's on. If the serial port is on a card, you may know what bus the card inserts into (usually a PCI slot). But if the serial port is built into the motherboard it may not be clear what bus it's on. For old motherboards that have ISA bus slots, it's likely on the ISA bus and may not even be Plug-and-Play. But even if all your slots are PCI, the serial port is likely to be on either the ISA bus or LPC bus (also called a "LPC interface"). LPC is common on laptop computers. Type "lspci" to see if it shows "LPC". Unfortunately, the LPC bus has no standard Plug-and-Play method for low-level configuring devices on it. One way to deal with it is to hope that the BIOS can configure them using ACPI. Some Linux developers are aware of the problem (in late 2004) and Linux may support the LPC bus better in the future. To see if you have a LCP bus, type "lspci" and look for a LPC bridge. For a serial port to work properly it first must be given both an IO address and an IRQ. For old hardware (of mid 1990s), jumpers on a card or the a saved BIOS setting does it. For newer hardware the BIOS or Linux must set them at boot-time, and the new hardware doesn't remember how it was set once it's powered Enabling hardware it gives it both an IRQ and an IO address. Without an IO address, it can't be used. Without an IRQ it will need to use inefficient polling methods for which one must set the IRQ to in the serial driver. In olden days IRQs and IO addresses were set by jumpers or switches on a serial port card. Today these are set by digital signals sent to the hardware by the BIOS or Linux. It all should get configured automatically (provided the BIOS has not been previously set up to disable it) so that you only need to read this if you're having problems or if you want to understand how it works.

Troubleshooting BUS ABCs A computer bus is a method of transmitting data from one part of the computer to another part of the computer. The computer bus will connect all devices to the computer CPU and main memory. The computer bus consists of two parts the address bus and a data bus . The data bus transfers actual data whereas the address bus transfers information about where the data should go. This page contains a basic overview of each of the computer buses as well as related links to each bus. ISA Introduced by IBM , ISA or Industry Standard Architecture was originally an 8-bit bus that was later expanded to a 16-bit bus in . When this bus was originally released it was a proprietary bus, which allowed only IBM to create peripherals and the actual interface. However in the early 1980's other manufacturers were creating the bus.

This document describes asynchronous connections, an asynchronous data-transfer service that efficiently transfers data between simple Serial Bus compliant devices. Standardization of asynchronous connections is expected to simplify device hardware and software, by providing a common transport for transferring (potentially) different forms of application-specific data. The scope and purpose of this activity are summarized below: Scope. Asynchronous connections provide a lightweight mechanism for robustly transferring large amounts of data between Serial Bus nodes. Bidirectional flow control limits the data transfer rate to the slower of the rates supported by the producer or consumer. The architecture is compatible with software managed interfaces (such as Open Host Controller Interface, OHCI) and allows for hardware optimizations. Purpose. Provide efficient robust data-transfer services for Serial Bus devices including AV devices that are controlled by AV/C commands. The same protocols can be used for many devices, although the content of the transferred data is expected to be application dependent.

NetSeminar Services 25 September 2005 Implementing a Flexible Serial Bus for Board Identification By Nathan John A popular method of implementing a board identification (ID) system in telecom equipment uses a serial bus that is dedicated for communicating identification information. The I C serial-bus architecture is applicable to a wide range of telecommunications products. C) protocol for serial communications allows this bus to be more flexible in implementing a board ID system. Virtually all medium to large capacity telecommunication systems are designed in modules. Each module is comprised of one or more circuit boards. Maintenance on this type of system is made very simple: remove the defective card and replace it. An additional benefit of this strategy is the ability to use these circuit-card building blocks on more than one system, which reduces design time and speeds time-to-market. The need for board identification Building a system based on circuit card modules requires a central master controller to determine available resources installed in that particular unit. Typically, the system master creates a table that contains information about these resources. There are two ways that this table can be created. Either this information is preprogrammed into the master at the time the system is configured, or the master can be given the ability to determine system resources during the power-on sequence. The latter method is preferred due to the greater flexibility it provides. It allows for swapping of boards for maintenance purposes at the customer site and can even serve as the basis for upgrading and reconfiguring a system in the field.

Advanced Search Log In Not a Member? Contact ADC ... Hardware Apple delivers industry-leading hardware based on open standards, state-of-the-art microprocessor technology and support for standard peripheral families. From the best-selling iPod digital music player, the AirPort wireless product family, the iMac and PowerMac desktop computers, and the stunning 30" Cinema Display, to the cutting-edge 17" PowerBook notebook computer, and the Xserve and Xserve RAID server products, Apple delivers powerful hardware solutions for home, school, and business. Apple continues to open new areas for developers, allowing you to write software that runs on these machines, as well as create hardware products that connect to and interact with these devices. In addition, Apple provides powerful tools such as Shark, an optimization tool that helps developers take full advantage of the power of the G5 processor. Apple's support of open standards makes it easier to create products that "just work." For example, AirPort wireless products are based on the 802.11b and 802.11g standards, which means that any 802.11 router may be used on an AirPort network. And Apple's hardware is integrated with the operating system, resulting in seamless operation for many hardware devices. For example, Apple takes responsibility for Universal Serial Bus (USB) integration, from the connection and wiring inside the box, to the drivers deep in the operating system, to the user interface that a customer interacts with to enable a new USB printer, and even to the way applications on the platform interact with the printer. No other vendor takes this end-to-end responsibility, and it makes the Macintosh a highly reliable and easy-to-work-with platform for hardware vendors.
