Interfacing Processors and Peripherals

  • I/O Design affected by many factors

(expandability, resilience)

  • Performance:

— access latency — throughput — connection between devices and the system — the memory hierarchy — the operating system

  • A variety of different users (e.g., banks,

supercomputers, engineers)

I/O Devices

  • Very diverse devices

— behavior (i.e., input vs. output) — partner (who is at the other end?) — data rate

I/O Example: Disk Drives

  • To access data:

— seek: position head over the proper track (3 to 14 ms. avg.) — rotational latency: wait for desired sector (.5 / RPM) — transfer: grab the data (one or more sectors) 30 to 80 MB/sec

Measures of Disk Drive’s Efficiency

  • Seek time is the time it takes for the

read/write head to get positioned over the specified track

  • Latency is the time it takes for the

specified sector to spin to the read/write head

  • Access time = Seek time + Latency. This

is the time it takes for a block to start being read

  • Transfer rate is the rate at which data is

transferred from the disk to memory

I/O Example: Buses

  • Shared communication link (one or more wires)
  • Difficult design:

— may be bottleneck — length of the bus — number of devices — tradeoffs (buffers for higher bandwidth increases latency) — support for many different devices — cost

  • Bus lines

— Control lines — Data lines (data, commands, addresses)

  • Bus transactions

— Read (output): memory to I/O device — Write (input): I/O device to memory

  • Types of buses:

— processor-memory (short high speed, custom design) — backplane (high speed, often standardized, e.g., PCI) — I/O (lengthy, different devices, e.g., USB, Firewire)

  • Synchronous vs. Asynchronous

— use a clock and a synchronous protocol, fast and small but every device must operate at same rate and clock skew requires the bus to be short — don’t use a clock and instead use handshaking

Designing an I/O system

  • Taking in account latency constraints and

bandwidth constraints.
