  • VIA RAID Configurations

    VIA RAID Configurations

    VIA RAID configurations The motherboard includes a high performance IDE RAID controller integrated in the VIA VT8237R southbridge chipset. It supports RAID 0, RAID 1 and JBOD with two independent Serial ATA channels. RAID 0 (called Data striping) optimizes two identical hard disk drives to read and write data in parallel, interleaved stacks. Two hard disks perform the same work as a single drive but at a sustained data transfer rate, double that of a single disk alone, thus improving data access and storage. Use of two new identical hard disk drives is required for this setup. RAID 1 (called Data mirroring) copies and maintains an identical image of data from one drive to a second drive. If one drive fails, the disk array management software directs all applications to the surviving drive as it contains a complete copy of the data in the other drive. This RAID configuration provides data protection and increases fault tolerance to the entire system. Use two new drives or use an existing drive and a new drive for this setup. The new drive must be of the same size or larger than the existing drive. JBOD (Spanning) stands for Just a Bunch of Disks and refers to hard disk drives that are not yet configured as a RAID set. This configuration stores the same data redundantly on multiple disks that appear as a single disk on the operating system. Spanning does not deliver any advantage over using separate disks independently and does not provide fault tolerance or other RAID performance benefits. If you use either Windows® XP or Windows® 2000 operating system (OS), copy first the RAID driver from the support CD to a floppy disk before creating RAID configurations.
  • A Technology Comparison Adopting Ultra-Wideband for Memsen’S File Sharing and Wireless Marketing Platform

    A Technology Comparison Adopting Ultra-Wideband for Memsen’S File Sharing and Wireless Marketing Platform

    A Technology Comparison Adopting Ultra-Wideband for Memsen’s file sharing and wireless marketing platform What is Ultra-Wideband Technology? Memsen Corporation 1 of 8 • Ultra-Wideband is a proposed standard for short-range wireless communications that aims to replace Bluetooth technology in near future. • It is an ideal solution for wireless connectivity in the range of 10 to 20 meters between consumer electronics (CE), mobile devices, and PC peripheral devices which provides very high data-rate while consuming very little battery power. It offers the best solution for bandwidth, cost, power consumption, and physical size requirements for next generation consumer electronic devices. • UWB radios can use frequencies from 3.1 GHz to 10.6 GHz, a band more than 7 GHz wide. Each radio channel can have a bandwidth of more than 500 MHz depending upon its center frequency. Due to such a large signal bandwidth, FCC has put severe broadcast power restrictions. By doing so UWB devices can make use of extremely wide frequency band while emitting very less amount of energy to get detected by other narrower band devices. Hence, a UWB device signal can not interfere with other narrower band device signals and because of this reason a UWB device can co-exist with other wireless devices. • UWB is considered as Wireless USB – replacement of standard USB and fire wire (IEEE 1394) solutions due to its higher data-rate compared to USB and fire wire. • UWB signals can co-exists with other short/large range wireless communications signals due to its own nature of being detected as noise to other signals.

    DAN189 EXAR UARTS IN GPS APPLICATIONS March 2007 EXAR UARTS IN GPS APPLICATIONS 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application note describes where an Exar UART can be used in a Global Positioning System (GPS) application. GPS has traditionally been used in military applications such as marine navigation, aircraft navigation, and weapon’s guidance. However, GPS applications have recently expanded to industrial and consumer applications such as vehicle navigation systems, fleet management, and personal navigation. In these applications, the Exar UART can be used in the GPS receiver and in the GPS application. FIGURE 1. GPS APPLICATION EXAMPLES GPS Applications Marine Navigation System Aircraft Navigation System Vehicle Navigation System Fleet Management System Personal Navigation System GPS Receiver TX RX UART RX TX UART 1.1 GPS Receiver A GPS receiver typically includes the following: • RF block for receiving the GPS data and converting it to digital data • Microprocessor for processing the data • ROM to store the firmware for processing the data • RAM used by the microprocessor for data processing • UART to send data to the GPS application The figure below shows a block diagram of a GPS receiver.

    In This Video We Are Going to See How a Personal Computer Hardware Is Organised the PC Was Designed with an Open Architecture

    In this video we are going to see how a personal computer hardware is organised The PC was designed with an open architecture. This means that it uses standard modular components. We can add, replace, update or swap them easily and the computer will identify and handle the new devices automatically. The main component of a computer system is the motherboard or main board. It is a printed circuit board (PCB) that holds the main components of the computer and the electronics needed to communicate between them and to expand the system. We could say that it is the central nervous system of the computer. A motherboard provides the electrical connections by which the other components of the system communicate. Unlike a backplane, it also contains the central processing unit and hosts other subsystems and devices The form factor is the specification of a motherboard – the dimensions, power supply type, location of mounting holes, number of ports on the back panel, etc. In the IBM PC compatible industry, standard form factors ensure that parts are interchangeable across competing vendors and generations of technology, while in enterprise computing, form factors ensure that server modules fit into existing rack mount systems. Traditionally, the most significant specification is for that of the motherboard, which generally dictates the overall size of the case. The most used form factor for IBM PC compatible motherboards is ATX (Advanced Technology Extended) and its derivatives. For small form factor mainboards mini ITX is the de facto standard. A power supply unit (PSU) converts mains AC to low- voltage regulated DC power for the internal components of a computer.

    cifX PC cards for Real-Time Ethernet and Fieldbus All major industrial protocols All common PC card formats One hardware for all Real-Time Ethernet protocols Master and Slave Wide range of device drivers Same application interface for all networks PC cards in all formats for all protocols The cifX PC card family is the unified standard supporting all Real-Time Ethernet and Fieldbus systems for PC based automation. The protocol stack is executed autonomously on the PC card and process data exchange with the host is done via Dual-Port-Memory or DMA (Direct Memory Access). Thanks to the common Hilscher Platform Strategy all PC cards use the same driver and tools - independent of protocol and card format. A change of communication protocol is done by just loading a different firmware. A rotary switch delivers an easy and reliable slot assignment for the PCI- and PCI Express card types. In addition special types e.g. with integrated NVRAM, 2-channel cards or detached network interface are available. A complete software package is always included in the scope of delivery. This package consists of one FDT-based configuration tool (IEC standard) for all products and networks, loadable firmware, documentation and a driver tool-kit.
