Method and arrangement for controlling a data transmission

摘要

For a bidirectional data transfer between a system bus (CPU-Bus) and a peripheral bus (PCI-Bus) the two busses are connected to each other via a coupling device (BRIDGE). The coupling device (BRIDGE) respectively has two (one per direction) means-specific temporary storage units (FIFO1, . . . , FIFOn) for all peripheral devices connected to the peripheral bus (PCI-Bus).
