An improvement over plain SCSI; and includes command
queuing. Fast SCSI provides 10 Mbps data transfer on an 8-bit
bus. Wide SCSI provides up to 40 Mbps data transfer on a 16- or
32-bit bus.
A connector that can exchange data with an I/O device one bit at
a time. It may operate synchronously or asynchronously, and may
include start bits, stop bits, and/or parity.
Serial Interface Module
Single Inline Memory Module. A small circuit board with RAM
chips (normally surface mounted) on it designed to fit into a
standard slot.
Super I/O controller
Symmetric MultiProcessing. A computer architecture in which
tasks are distributed among two or more local processors.
Surface Mount Technology. A method of mounting devices (such
as integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, and others) on a printed
circuit board, characterized by not requiring mounting holes.
Rather, the devices are soldered to pads on the printed circuit
board. Surface-mount devices are typically smaller than the
equivalent through-hole devices.
A computing system is normally spoken of as having two major
components: hardware and software. Software is the term used to
describe any single program or group of programs, languages,
operating procedures, and documentation of a computer system.
Software is the real interface between the user and the computer.
Static Random Access Memory
Source Synchronous BLock Transfer
A set of detailed technical guidelines used as a means of
establishing uniformity in an area of hardware or software
development.
Super Video Graphics Array (IBM). An improved VGA monitor
standard that provides at least 256 simultaneous colors and a
screen resolution of 800 x 600 pixels.
