AI Thread Summary
Pipelining wires refers to a technique in microprocessor architecture aimed at reducing the delays caused by wire latency in data transmission. This method involves organizing the flow of data through multiple stages, similar to traditional pipelining in processors, but specifically focuses on the interconnects or wires that carry signals. By implementing pipelining at the wire level, overall performance can be enhanced, allowing for more efficient data processing. The referenced document may provide further insights into the technical aspects of this concept. Understanding pipelining wires is crucial for optimizing microprocessor design and performance.

here's a statement "pipelining wires is an effective mechanism to overcome intrinsic wire latency" as related to the microprocessor architecture. What exactly is this "pipelining of wires"? I know what a pipeline architecture is of a processor vs let's say multicycle, but pipelining WIRES?
Could someone explain? thanks...

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
