In integrated circuit design, static core generally refers to a microprocessor (MPU) entirely implemented in static logic. A static core MPU may be halted by stopping the system clock oscillator that is driving it, maintaining its state and resume processing at the point where it was stopped when the clock signal is restarted, as long as power continues to be applied. Static core MPUs are fabricated in the CMOS process and hence consume very little power when the clock is stopped, making them useful in designs in which the MPU remains in standby mode until needed and minimal loading of the power source (often a battery) is desirable during standby | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |

Within a SpaceWire network the nodes are connected through low-cost, low-latency, full-duplex, point-to-point serial links, and packet switching wormhole routing routers | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
The SS-50 bus was an early computer bus designed as a part of the SWTPC 6800 Computer System that used the Motorola 6800 CPU. The SS-50 motherboard would have around seven 50-pin connectors for CPU and memory boards plus eight 30-pin connectors for I/O boards. The I/O section was sometimes called the SS-30 bus | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
A system bus is a single computer bus that connects the major components of a computer system,
combining the functions of a data bus to carry information, an address bus to determine where it should be sent or read from, and a control bus to determine its operation. The technique was developed to reduce costs and improve modularity, and although popular in the 1970s and 1980s, more modern computers use a variety of separate buses adapted to more specific needs.
The system level bus (as distinct from a CPU's internal datapath busses) connects the CPU to memory and I/O devices | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
The System Management Bus (abbreviated to SMBus or SMB) is a single-ended simple two-wire bus for the purpose of lightweight communication. Most commonly it is found in chipsets of computer motherboards for communication with the power source for ON/OFF instructions. The exact functionality and hardware interfaces vary with vendors | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
A system on a module (SoM) is a board-level circuit that integrates a system function in a single module. It may integrate digital and analog functions on a single board. A typical application is in the area of embedded systems | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
TURBOchannel is an open computer bus developed by DEC by during the late 1980s and early 1990s. Although it is open for any vendor to implement in their own systems, it was mostly used in Digital's own systems such as the MIPS-based DECstation and DECsystem systems, in the VAXstation 4000, and in the Alpha-based DEC 3000 AXP. Digital abandoned the use of TURBOchannel in favor of the EISA and PCI buses in late 1994, with the introduction of their AlphaStation and AlphaServer systems | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
U. 2 (pronounced 'u-dot-2'), formerly known as SFF-8639, is a computer interface standard for connecting solid-state drives (SSDs) to a computer. It covers the physical connector, electrical characteristics, and communication protocols | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
The Unibus was the earliest of several computer bus and backplane designs used with PDP-11 and early VAX systems manufactured by the Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) of Maynard, Massachusetts. The Unibus was developed around 1969 by Gordon Bell and student Harold McFarland while at Carnegie Mellon University. The name refers to the unified nature of the bus; Unibus was used both as a system bus allowing the central processing unit to communicate with main memory, as well as a peripheral bus, allowing peripherals to send and receive data | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is an industry standard that specifies the physical interfaces and protocols for connecting, data transferring and powering of hosts, such as personal computers, peripherals, e. g. keyboards and mobile devices, and intermediate hubs | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
This article provides information about the communications aspects of Universal Serial Bus (USB): Signaling, Protocols, Transactions. USB is an industry-standard used to specify cables, connectors, and protocols that are used for communication between electronic devices. USB ports and cables are used to connect hardware such as printers, scanners, keyboards, mice, flash drives, external hard drives, joysticks, cameras, monitors, and more to computers of all kinds | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
V-by-One HS is an electrical digital signaling standard that can run at faster speeds over inexpensive twisted-pair copper cables than Low-voltage differential signaling, or LVDS. It was originally developed by THine Electronics, Inc. in 2007 for high-definition televisions but since 2010 V-by-One HS has been widely adopted in various markets such as document processing, automotive infotainment systems, industrial cameras and machine vision, robotics and amusement equipments | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
The VAXBI bus (VAX Bus Interconnect bus) is a computer bus designed and sold by the Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) of Maynard, Massachusetts.
The bus is an advanced, configuration-free synchronous bus used on DEC's later VAX computers. Like the Unibus and Q-Bus before it, it uses memory-mapped I/O but has 32-bit address and data paths | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
The Vehicle Area Network (VAN) is a vehicle bus developed by PSA Peugeot Citroën and Renault. It is a serial protocol capable of speeds up to 125 kbit/s and is standardised in ISO 11519-3. At the media layer, VAN is a differential bus with dominant and recessive states signalling ones and zeros much like CAN bus | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
A vehicle bus is a specialized internal communications network that interconnects components inside a vehicle (e. g. , automobile, bus, train, industrial or agricultural vehicle, ship, or aircraft) | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
Versatile Service Engine is a second generation IP Multimedia Subsystem developed by Nortel Networks that is compliant with Advanced Telecommunications Computing Architecture specifications. Nortel's versatile service engine provides capability to telecommunication service provider to

VMEbus (Versa Module Eurocard bus) is a computer bus standard, originally developed for the Motorola 68000 line of CPUs, but later widely used for many applications and standardized by the IEC as ANSI/IEEE 1014-1987. It is physically based on Eurocard sizes, mechanicals and connectors (DIN 41612), but uses its own signalling system, which Eurocard does not define. It was first developed in 1981 and continues to see widespread use today | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
VPX (Virtual Path Cross-Connect, also known as VITA 46, refers to a set of standards for connecting components of a computer (known as a computer bus), commonly used by defense contractors. Some are ANSI standards such as ANSI/VITA 46. 0–2019 | https://huggingface.co/datasets/fmars/wiki_stem |
VME eXtensions for instrumentation bus (VXI bus) refers to standards for automated test based upon VMEbus.
