A computer motherboard's bus speed has no effect on the installed CPU's speed. In a computer, the motherboard and the CPU are two separate components and do not impact the performance of one another.

The exponential growth rate of Internet traffic has caused a need for increasingly faster processing of encrypted data by network security processors which offload security functions from general ...

A Spymac thread posted this weekend reveals some screenshots and information about a feature of the new PowerMac G5's called "Slewing". Details on the various modes are provided in Apple's Developer ...

Striving to deliver solutions for maximum overall system performance, embedded board vendors are now offering multiprocessor products featuring the most recent generation of DSP and RISC processors.

The AMD762 provides two EV6 buses, one to each AthlonMP, and a DDR-only memory controller that runs the memory at the same clock as the processor bus, either 100 MHz (200 MHZ DDR) or 133 MHz (266 MHz ...

For many years, the 8-bit microcontroller has been the workhorse of embedded systems. Design teams favor the size and power benefits that a tightly coupled processor, such as the 8051 microcontroller, ...

High-end microcontrollers often use large, complex crossbar switches and other technologies to maximize throughput and performance. Low-end microcontrollers typically feature a simple bus structure.
