Hi,
what is the chipest way to pass a CPU bus over a backplane,to control
other cards,without CPCI,VME bridges etc...?
Is it common to drive the bus with simple buffers over the backplane?
what about hot insertion,or prevent damaging the cards...(CPCI,and other
protocols overcome this problems)...?

Thanks,
Bull
 

Hi

Yes it was common to do so. ISA, STD-bus or G64/G96 bus (GESPAC) were only extansion of the processor chip through buffers.

Hot insertion is not chip. It requires staged connectors and dedicated hardware to manage power supply and reset during insertion.
