The system bus
The system bus is a pathway composed of cables and connectors used to carry data
between a computer microprocessor and the main memory. The bus provides a
communication path for the data and control signals moving between the major
components of the computer system. The system bus works by combining the functions of
the three main buses: namely, the data, address and control buses. Each of the three buses
has its separate characteristics and responsibilities.
The computer system bus is the method by which data is communicated between all the
internal pieces of a computer. It connects the processor to the RAM, to the hard drive, to
the video processor, to the I/O drives, and to all the other components of the computer.
There are three types of buses in a computer, which all flow together. The data bus allows
data to flow between devices; the address bus tells devices where the data should go or is
coming from; and the control bus coordinates activity between various devices to prevent
data collisions. “Collisions” is a term that identifies the corruption of data resulting from
simultaneous use of the data and/or address bus.
