Introduction to Input and Output (I/O) Requirements and Interfaces

- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- This topic introduces how Input and Output is provided to the processor and memory from hardware devices. We look at how varied the requirements and interfaces are for all of the I/O devices that computers have to manage and how hardware and strategies like Programmed I/O, Interrupts, DMA (Direct Memory Access) and I/O Controllers enable the computer efficiently work with them all. These methods of addressing and communicating with input and output devices allow computers to work with many different types of peripheral devices. These devices include Monitors, touchscreens, keyboard and mouse, secondary storage such as hard disks and SSD (Solid State Disk), network connections and more.
Challenges that need to be overcome include:
- Different formats required by the devices
- Incompatibilities in speed between the devices and the CPU that make synchronization difficult
- Bursts of data vs. streaming data
- Device control requirements that would tie up too much CPU time
