Consider  an  I/O  bus  that  can  transfer  5  bytes  of  data  in  one  bus  cycle and keeping in mind that the maximum frequency of the bus is 40 MHz. Suppose  that  a designer is considering to attach the following two components to this bus:

Hard drive, with a transfer rate of 80 Mbytes/sec and Video card, with a transfer rate of 140 Mbytes/sec. What will be the implications?


Q2.                                                                                                                     10 marks
