XT BUS ARCHITECTURE

Domain	Definition
Computing	XT bus architecture (After the IBM PC XT) An eight-bit ISA bus architecture used by Intel 8086 and Intel 8088 systems in the IBM PC and IBM PC XT in the 1980s. It predates the 16-bit ISA architecture used on the Intel 80286 based machines. The XT bus has four DMA channels, of which three are brought out to the expansion slots. Of these three, two are normally allocated to machine functions: DMA channel Expansion Standard function 0 No dynamic RAM refresh 1 Yes add-on cards 2 Yes floppy disk controller 3 Yes hard disc controller (1997-09-15).

Specialty Definition: XT bus architecture

The XT bus architecture is an eight-bit ISA bus architecture used by Intel 8086 and Intel 8088 systems in the IBM PC and IBM PC XT in the 1980s. It predates the 16-bit ISA architecture used on IBM PC AT machines.

The XT bus has four DMA channels, of which three are brought out to the expansion slots. Of these three, two are normally allocated to machine functions:

DMA channel Expansion Standard function

0 No {dynamic RAM} refresh

1 Yes add-on cards

2 Yes {floppy disk} controller

3 Yes {hard disk} controller

DMA channel	Expansion	Standard function
0	No	{dynamic RAM} refresh
1	Yes	add-on cards
2	Yes	{floppy disk} controller
3	Yes	{hard disk} controller
