German Schurter plug Schurter model Schurter price

Schurter plug is the public communication backbone for transmitting information between various functional components of a computer. It is a transmission bundle composed of wires. According to the types of information transmitted by the computer, the computer bus can be divided into data bus, address bus, and control bus, which are used to transmit data, data addresses, and control signals, respectively. The bus is an internal structure; it is the common channel for cpu, memory, input, and output devices to transmit information. The various components of the host are connected via the bus, and external devices are connected to the bus through corresponding interface circuits, thereby forming the computer hardware system. In a computer system, the public path for transmitting information between various components is called the bus. Microcomputers connect various functional components using a bus structure.

Schurter plug working principle

If the motherboard (Mother Board) is a city, then the bus is like the public buses (bus) in the city, capable of transmitting bits (bit) that operate back and forth along fixed routes. These lines can only be responsible for transmitting one bit at a time. Therefore, multiple lines must be used simultaneously to transmit more data. The number of data items that the bus can transmit simultaneously is called the width (width), measured in bits. The greater the bus width, the better the transmission performance. The bus bandwidth (i.e., the total amount of data that can be transmitted per unit time) is: Bus Bandwidth = Frequency x Width (Bytes/sec). When the bus is idle (other devices are connected to the bus in a high-impedance state) and a device needs to communicate with a target device, the initiating device drives the bus, issuing address and data. Other devices connected to the bus in a high-impedance state, upon receiving (or being able to receive) address information matching their own, accept the data on the bus. After the sending device completes communication, it releases the bus (output changes to high-impedance state).

Schurter plug features

1) Physical characteristics: Physical characteristics, also known as mechanical characteristics, refer to some characteristics exhibited by components on the bus during physical connection, such as the geometric dimensions, shape, number of pins, and arrangement order of plugs and sockets. 2) Functional characteristics: Functional characteristics refer to the function of each signal line. For example, the address bus is used to represent address codes. The data bus is used to represent transmitted data, and the control bus represents commands, status, etc., for operations on the bus. 3) Electrical characteristics: Electrical characteristics refer to the signal direction on each signal line and the voltage range representing valid signals. Typically, signals sent by the master device (such as CPU) are called output signals (OUT), and signals sent into the master device are called input signals (IN). Typically, for data and address signals, a high level is defined as logic 1 and a low level as logic 0. There is no customary convention for control signals; for example, WE indicates active low, and Ready indicates active high. There is no unified regulation for the high and low voltage ranges of different buses; they usually comply with TTL. 4) Timing characteristics: Timing characteristics, also known as logical characteristics, refer to when signals on each signal line are valid during bus operation. Through this agreement on the timing relationship of valid signals, correct bus operation is ensured. To improve the expandability of computers and the universality of components and devices, except for on-chip buses, various components or devices adopt standardized forms to connect to the bus and implement information transmission on the bus in a standardized manner. These standardized connection forms and operation methods of the bus are collectively referred to as bus standards. Examples include ISA, PCI, and USB bus standards. Correspondingly, buses adopting these standards are ISA bus, PCI bus, and USB bus.

Schurter plug assembly

The northbridge chip on the motherboard is responsible for connecting components with the highest data throughput, such as memory and graphics cards, and connects to the southbridge chip. The CPU is connected to the northbridge chip via the front-side bus (FSB), and then exchanges data with memory and graphics cards through the northbridge chip. The front-side bus is the main channel for the CPU to exchange data with the outside world. Therefore, the data transmission capability of the front-side bus has a significant impact on the overall performance of the computer. If the front-side bus is not fast enough, even a powerful CPU cannot significantly improve the overall speed of the computer. The maximum data transmission bandwidth depends on the width of all data transmitted simultaneously and the transmission frequency, i.e., Data Bandwidth = (Bus Frequency × Data Bit Width) ÷ 8. The front-side bus frequencies achievable on PC machines include 266MHz, 333MHz, 400MHz, 533MHz, and 800MHz. A higher front-side bus frequency indicates greater data transmission capability between the CPU and the northbridge chip, allowing the CPU's functions to be fully utilized. CPU technology develops rapidly, and computing speed increases quickly. A sufficiently large front-side bus ensures sufficient data supply to the CPU. A lower front-side bus cannot supply enough data to the CPU, limiting the performance of the CPU and becoming a system bottleneck.
