PCI System Architecture is a detailed and comprehensive guide to the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) Bus Specification, Intels technology for fast communication between peripheral devices and the computer processor. This new edition has been thoroughly updated, reorganized, and expanded to cover the PCI Local Bus Specification version 2.2 and other recent developments, including the new PCI Hot-Plug Specification, changes to the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification, revisions to the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification, and the new features of the PCI BIOS Specification. This book provides clear and concise explanations of the relationship of PCI to the rest of the system and PCI fundamentals, including commands, read and write transfers, memory and I/O addressing, error handling, interrupts, and configuration transactions and registers. In addition, you will find specific information on such key topics as: *Hot-Plug Specification *Power management *CompactPCI *The 64-bit PCI Extension *66 MHz PCI Implementation *Expansion ROMs *PCI-to-PCI Bridge and the PCI BIOS *Add-in cards and connectors *Bus arbitration *Reflected-wave switching *Early transaction e

80486 System Architecture describes the hardware architecture of PC products using the Intel family of 80486 chips, providing a clear, concise explanation of the 80486 processor's relationship to the rest of the system. The author provides a comprehensive treatment of the processor including: -80486 microarchitecture and its functional units -internal and external caches -hardware interface -SL technology features -instructions new to the 80486 -the register set -486/487SX processors -486DX2 processors -486DX2 write-back enhanced processor -486DX4 processors -implementation-specific issues -main memory subsystem design -OverDrive processors If you design or test hardware or software that involves 486 processors, 80486 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.The PC System Architecture Series features step-by-step descriptions and instructions and accessible illustrations that enable a wide range of readers to easily understand difficult hardware topics. The authors, expert hardware training consultants for clients including IBM, Intel, Compaq, and Dell, have mastered the art of pinpointing and succinctly explaining just the critical information that PC programmers, software and hardware designers, and engineers need to know and leaving out the rest. The result is an exciting series of books that will enable readers of a wide range of backgrounds to make immediate gains in programming productivity.

Eisa System Architecture (PC System Architecture, Vol 2)

An invaluable tool and reference on ISA architecture and time reading it is time well spent. You might just end up wondering how you ever got along without it! -David Greenberg, Dell Computer Corporation ISA System Architecture describes the hardware architecture of ISA (Industry Standard Architecture), providing a clear, concise explanation of an ISA system in detail. The authors provide a comprehensive treatment of the bus including: bus cycles addressing I/O RAM, ROM, and cache memory cache architectures decode and reset logic interrupts system kernel bus mastering DMA RTC and configuration RAM If you design or test hardware or software that involves ISA, ISA 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 programmers perspective the architecture, features, and operations of systems built using one particular type of chip or hardware specification.

CardBus System Architecture describes 32-bit PC Cards, called CardBus PC Cards, and the hardware and software interfaces required to implement the new CardBus solution. This book focuses on the design and implementation of CardBus Cards and the host systems required to support them, including relationships and interaction between hardware and software elements associated with CardBus Cards and their host systems.

the problems that single-task and multitasking operating systems must deal with, and then examines each component of both the real and protected mode software architectures. This book is organized into three parts. Part One: Background introduces the reader to the problems faced by a multitasking operating system. Part Two: Register Set and Real Mode provides an overview of Real Mode operation. Part Three: Protected Mode takes a building-block approach to explaining the protection mechanisms and multitasking capabilities of the post-286 Intel processors, including segmentation, virtual paging, the flat model, and virtual 8086 mode. Protected Mode Software Architecture extends MindShares coverage of x86 processor architecture to the software environment and complements the previously published 80486 System Architecture and Pentium Processor System Architecture (both from Addison-Wesley). If you design or test multitasking operating systems, real-time operating systems, or device drivers for these systems, Protected Mode Software 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
