SIM
Serial Interface Module
SIMM
Single Inline Memory Module. A small circuit board with RAM
chips (normally surface mounted) on it designed to fit into a
standard slot.
SIO
Super I/O controller
SMP
Symmetric MultiProcessing. A computer architecture in which
tasks are distributed among two or more local processors.
SMT
Surface Mount Technology. A method of mounting devices (such
as integrated circuits, resistors, capacitors, and others) on a printed
circuit board, characterized by not requiring mounting holes.
Rather, the devices are soldered to pads on the printed circuit
board. Surface-mount devices are typically smaller than the
equivalent through-hole devices.
software
A computing system is normally spoken of as having two major
components: hardware and software. Software is the term used to
describe any single program or group of programs, languages,
operating procedures, and documentation of a computer system.
Software is the real interface between the user and the computer.
SRAM
Static Random Access Memory
SSBLT
Source Synchronous BLock Transfer
standard(s)
A set of detailed technical guidelines used as a means of
establishing uniformity in an area of hardware or software
development.
SVGA
Super Video Graphics Array (IBM). An improved VGA monitor
standard that provides at least 256 simultaneous colors and a
screen resolution of 800 x 600 pixels.
Teletext
One way broadcast of digital information. The digital information
is injected in the broadcast TV signal, VBI, or full field, The
transmission medium could be satellite, microwave, cable, etc.
The display medium is a regular TV receiver.
thick Ethernet
