- 0 What is IEEE 1394 The 1394 standard was defined, and continues to be maintained, by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc. (IEEE). The technology allows for high-speed connections between computers and related devices and helps bridge the divide between computers and consumer electronics. The technology is flexible, easy to use and offers high bandwidth at a low cost. With 1394-compatible products and systems, users can transfer video or still images from a camera or camcorder to a printer, PC, or television quickly, with no image degradation.
- 0 1394 Features The 1394 standard is a high-speed serial bus designed to deliver high data transfer speeds at a low cost, and with the low degree of latency required by a peripheral bus or by a backup to a traditional parallel bus. Among its key features are: ?? High Speed. Speeds of 100, 200 and 400 megabits per second (Mbps) are currently supported. ?? Isochronous Support. Deterministic bandwidth allocation guarantees bandwidth for time-sensitive applications, such as real-time video feeds, that could otherwise be disrupted by heavy bus traffic. ?? Flexible Topology. Devices can be daisy-chained and no central bus supervision is required. ?? Hot-Plug Support. The bus is dynamically reconfigured whenever new n
