ABSTRACT:
A physically compact peripheral bus that provides a long electrical distances between signal branch off points. The compact physical spacing allows a high speed peripheral bus to be used to connect a large number of peripheral devices within a computer system enclosure and yet avoiding the reflections experienced when numerous peripheral branch connections are located near to each other. Branch reflections are reduced by providing an electrically short branch length in conjunction with an electrically long printed wiring path for each signal, while maintaining a physically short connector spacing. The physically-short, electrically-long path is accomplished by a serpentine printed wiring conductor path of many folds for each high speed signal path between adjacent branches. Thus, the SCSI recommended spacing of 0.3 meters is provided in a physical spacing of 0.05 meters.
