摘要:
It is an object of the present invention to provide an active-line inserted/withdrawn functional circuit board, a data transfer system and a computer system which systems allow the functional circuit board to be inserted and withdrawn with signal lines remaining in an active state while achieving a high speed data-transfer of a bus, and the reliability to be enhanced by eliminating malfunctions which occur particularly during the insertion of a functional circuit board. The data transfer system or the computer system comprising: a functional circuit board having a functional circuit, a pre-charge resistor and a switching element connected in parallel to an input/output signal path of the functional circuit and a switching control means for controlling the conduction of the switching element through synchronization with a delayed clock signal resulting from delaying a bus clock signal for use in data transfers through the bus by a time shorter than a bus-clock cycle time of the bus clock signal; and a connector provided on an input/output end of the parallel connection of the pre-charge resistor and the switching element, whereby the functional circuit board can be inserted and withdrawn to and from the bus.

A signal transmitting circuit includes one or more circuit blocks having a driving circuit and an intra-block transmission line for transmitting a signal produced by the driving circuit, one or more circuit blocks having a receiving circuit and an intra-block transmission line for transmitting the signal to said receiving circuit, and a main interblock transmission line for propagating a signal between both of the driving and receiving circuit blocks. Inter-block transmission line is terminated at one or two ends by one or two resistors having substantially the same impedance as the interblock transmission line itself. Each of the intra-block transmission line is provided with a resistance element having a resistance equal to or close to a value derived by subtracting a half of an impedance of the inter-block transmission line from an impedance of the intra-block transmission line, to lower signal amplitude and suppress reflections of a signal at branch points along the main interblock transmission line, thereby enabling a high-speed signal transfer.
