Address Bus
|
De-multiplexed 20 Bit address Bus

|
Memory Addressability
|
1.048576 MB
|
Up to 16 MB
|
Up to 4GB
|
DMA Channels Supported
|
DRQ1, DRQ2 and DRQ3
|
DRQ1, DRQ2 ,DRQ3, DRQ0, DRQ5, DRQ6, DRQ7
|
DRQ1, DRQ2, DRQ3, DRQ0, DRQ5, DRQ6, DRQ7
|
Interrupts
|
IRQ2, IRQ3, IRQ4, IRQ5, IRQ6, IRQ7.
|
IRQ2, IRQ3, IRQ4, IRQ5, IRQ6, IRQ7, IRQ10, IRQ11, IRQ12, IRQ14, IRQ15. IRQ13 is not available to expansion bus and has been assigned to math Co processor. IRQ9 is wired to IRQ2 and that’s why there is no such interrupt line in ISA bus.IRQ8 has been assigned to RTC( Real Time Clock) of system and is not available in expansion bus
|
IRQ0 (Timer 0), IRQ1 (Keyboard), SRQ2 (cascading according to the second PIC in the AT), IRQ3 (COM 2), IRQ4 (COM 1), IRQ5 (LPT2), IRQ6 (Floppy Controller), IRQ7 (LPT1), IRQ8 (RTC), SRQ9 (Unused), IRQ10 (Unused), IRQ11 (Unused), IRQ12 (Unused), IRQ13 (Math Coprocessor), IRQ14 (hard Disk Controller), IRQ15 (Unused).

8.33 MHz
|
Data Transfer Rate
|
4.77MBps
|
@8MHz =16.66 MB/sec
|
33.32 MB/sec transfer rate for bus masters and DMA devices(But wait state, interrupts and other protocols reduces the effective bandwidth by almost half)
