Open LibraryAbout this book
FireWire (IEEE 1394) is an emerging technology that provides high-speed serial bus communications. This book offers an in-depth description of the IEEE 1394 cable environment based on the 1394-1995 release of the standard and includes changes introduced by the 1394a supplement. IEEE 1394 defines a layered software and hardware approach for serial bus communication. FireWire System Architecture details the various layers and provides transaction examples to explain and illustrate the relationships between each layer. It explores important features of 1394 including: node architecture; address space; arbitration; transaction types: isochronous, asynchronous, lock; broadcast transactions; control and status registers (CSRs); automatic configuration; configuration ROM; bus management; physical layer; transaction layer; link layer; and cable and electrical interface.
