Logic analyzers, though originally intended for debugging parallel logic, remain important in the development of ultra-high-speed serial-bus hardware, even though the data rate of such buses often ...

Standard parallel-bus structures are reaching their performance limits. The only way to increase system bandwidth is to switch to a serial-bus structure. Although serial structures promise enhanced ...

The Xtreme Bus Emulator (XBE) VXI-bus emulator allows the emulation of a digital parallel or serial bus by downloading a unique micro-code that defines the bus protocol scheduled for execution. It ...

A shared channel that transmits data one bit after the other over a single wire or fiber; for example, Ethernet uses a serial bus architecture. The I/O bus from the CPU to the peripherals is a ...

This is just a general question. I know, obviously, that there are RS-232 "serial ports" and IEEE 1284/Centronix ports "parallel ports," and that these are "digital" connections. Then you have things ...

Why the need for PCI Express?As processor clock speeds increase, parallel buses such as PCI become harder to implement. Signal skew and fan-out restrictions restrict the bandwidth achievable on a ...
