Description of the invention (/) The present invention relates to a data transmission line, and in particular to a transmission line connected between a microprocessor and a chipset. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) The microprocessor or central processing unit (CPU) of the computer communicates with the outside world through the chipset (ch 1 pse〇) for data transmission and command communication. Chipset The I / O pins on the board are connected to the microprocessor socket on the computer motherboard through the data transfer logic bus. The printed circuit board on the microprocessor is inserted into the connection socket on the motherboard to carry out data with the chipset. The specifications of the common transmission logic buses currently applied to microprocessors are printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economics, which roughly include Gunning Transceiver Logic (GTL +) buses and High Speed Transceiver Logic (HSTL) Bus, etc. GTL + bus is adopted by Intel (Intel) company's new generation of microprocessors, used to transfer data to and from the external interface standard specifications, applicable microprocessors include Pentium-class microprocessors, such as pentiumll, Pentium III, Pentium Pro, Socket 370, etc. The HSTL bus is used by another microprocessor to Standard specifications for transmitting data through the external interface. However, because GTL + and HSTL buses are two different specifications, the microprocessor series using GTL + buses and the microprocessor series using HSTL buses must use two different types. Chipset to control the microprocessor.

Comparing Figure 1 and Figure 2, it can be found that both buses have the following in common: the terminal voltage Vn. Is the same, such as VTT = 1.5V.

Description of the invention (: >) is about 1.0V (when Vn = 1.5V), that is, VREF-2 / 3 * νΊΤ or 0.68 * Vn. GTL + bus 12 and HSTL bus 22 both use the same connector M, 24: different microprocessors 16, 26 have their own printed circuit boards 16a, 26a, and then printed circuit board 16a , 26a are plugged into the connection slots 14, 24 on the motherboards 10a, 20a and connected to the chipset 10, 20. Comparing Figure 1 and Figure 2, we can see that the difference lies in the structure of the transmission line bus, the GTL + and HSTL structures. The GTL + transmission line bus 12 bus structure shown in Figure 1 uses one or two 56 ohm pull-up (puU-up) resistors Rtl to pull up the potential of the bus bar. At the same time, this resistor Rn is located at the end of the transmission line. The characteristics of the end-termmation resistor can be used to prevent the signal from ringing back. The transmission bus 22 of the HSTL structure in FIG. 2 has two 100 ohm pull-up resistors Rlt to pull up the potential of the transmission logic bus. This resistor is not used as a terminating resistor. In addition, in the HSTL transmission bus 22 shown in FIG. 2, the output (10) ends of the chipset 20 and the microprocessor 26 each include a series resistor Rs, about 22 ohms, which is mainly used to reduce the signal vibration of the transmission line ( damping). From the above, it can be known that GTL + and HSTL buses are two different specifications of transmission logic buses, different microprocessors use different transmission logic buses, and the chipsets they use are not the same. The chipset on the motherboard is usually fixed, which limits the type of microprocessors the user can choose. Therefore, ‘design a chipset’ to reduce the number of different transmissions 邋 4 (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) Ancient 0

Description of the invention (minutes) The crystals MN1, MN2 and the first resistance device PR1 are in a conducting state, so that the transmission line 102 has the second Transmission logic bus configuration, such as GTU specification transmission logic bus. In this embodiment, the GTL + and HSTL buses that are often used will be taken as examples for illustration. Referring to Fig. 4, when a microprocessor series product using the HSTL transmission logic bus is inserted into the connection slot 104, it is assumed that the detection signal K7 of the microprocessor which is defined at this time is a logic 1 state. According to this signal K7, the resistor RNU and the transistor MN1 are turned on, and become the main working element in the buffer 120. When MN1 is turned on, the equivalent resistance is designed to be the same as the sum of the series resistance Rs and the on-resistance of the input and output buffers in Figure 2. In this case, the Rs resistance on the motherboard can be omitted. In addition, the resistor RNU is designed as a resistance element close to 100 ohms, which is used to pull up the resistor. The resistor RNU can make the resistor fall within the acceptable range of the transmission logic bus specifications after proper compensation. This is equivalent to the HSTL bus structure shown in Figure 2. The pull-up resistors RU and Rs on the motherboard can be omitted and not made. Referring to the fourth _, when a microprocessor series product using GTL + transmission logic bus is inserted into the connection slot 104, it is assumed that the microprocessor detection signal K7 defined for detection at this time is a logic 0 state. According to this signal K7, the resistance device PR1 is turned on with the transistors MN1 and MN2, and becomes the main working element in the buffer 120. At this time, the resistance device RNU is turned off. The equivalent resistance of the resistor device PR1 and the transistors MN1 and MN2 can be designed to be the same as the conventional GTL + transmission logic bus structure in Figure 1.

Description of the invention (q) It is possible to omit the pull-up and termination resistor Ru on the main board in Figure 1. From the above, it can be known that the microprocessor detection signal K7 generated when the microprocessor module 130 is inserted into the microprocessor socket 104 will be transmitted to the logic control circuit 24 of the input / output buffer 120, thereby enabling Determine the type of microprocessor used by the user. At the same time, the input / output buffer 120 selects appropriate components from the resistor devices PR1, RNU and transistors MN1, MN2 to be turned on, so as to generate a suitable transmission logic bus configuration. Therefore, the input / output buffers supporting multiple transmission logic buses of the present invention can support at least two different transmission logic buses. The modulation controller 22 in Figure 4 will also start to operate when the microprocessor series using GTL + transmission logic bus is selected, which is used to improve the return effect of receiving GTL + transmission logic bus signals and reduce power consumption. The resistance device PR1 can be formed using a PMOS transistor. When the voltage of the input / output pad 126 is between 1.5V and 1.0V, the modulation controller 122 outputs 0V so that the resistor PR1 is completely turned on and the resistance 値 is maintained at 100Ω to 200Ω. When the input / output pad 126 gradually drops below 1.0V, The gate voltage of the PMOS transistor used as the resistor PR1 gradually rises gradually, which can be considered as the equivalent resistance to increase the resistance. The PMOS transistor used as the resistor PR1 does not turn on completely after five to ten nanoseconds. The use of the resistor PR1 has an active shutdown characteristic, which can effectively reduce the return effect β to less than 0.4V. As shown in FIG. 5, the output waveform of the input / output buffer 120 under the GTL + configuration of the present invention is reflected in Under the effect, the voltage at the -rebound point A (0.4V) is very close to the steady-state voltage. -Line · (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (2) 0 X 297 mm 577twf.doc / 006 A / 46 6414__β7__ 5.
