We can not connect peripherals directly to the system bus for the following reasons:
- To maintain the cleanest conditions possible inside the box
- You would need to snake the connectors/cables all over the inside of the case and possibly block the motion of the cooling fan(s)
- Protect the mother board from being damaged by too much pressure being applied
One of the major reasons is the peripherals' cabling would put too much capacitive loading on the system bus, either slowing its operation by orders of magnitude or making it impossible to operate at all!
Mismatch of data rates.
Data transfer rate of some peripherals is faster than that of the memory or processor.

What bus allows processors to communicate with peripherals?
We have on a motherboard called a input/output device. There are multiple of types, but the most common are PS/2, DVI, and USB. There are wires connected to the device called a Bus. The bus sends data to the processor where it is interpreted as data.
The bus cable to which computers on the Ethernet is connected?
The bus cable to which computers on the Ethernet is connected is called the trunk. If the trunk breaks, a bus topology is completely disrupted.
What is the transmission protocol between a computer and a peripheral device?
The way a computer communicates with a peripheral device is through a device driver. A device driver is a low level computer program that allows higher level programs to communicate with a hardware device connected to the computer bus. Device drivers are hardware dependent and specific to an operating system.
Name 2 type bus that are connected to the south bridge?
The audio bus, USB bus, HDD bus...
What is the expansion bus crystal?
It controls the part of the external data bus connected to the expansion slots.

What is the CPU connected to the system memory with?
System bus
What is slack bus?
A PU bus in the power system which has the constant voltage value and is connected to a generator. The extra required energy or excess energy in the power system is managed by connected generator to this bus.

What is the interface between CPU and peripherals called?
A serial bus.
The CPU is connected to the system memory by the?
The Front Side Bus (FSB) connects the processor (CPU) in your computer to the system memory.
CPU is connected to the system memory by the?
socket on motherboard
What is the data path beween the microprocessor RAM and the peripherals?
Data bus
Which bus does not work in sync with CPU and the system clock?
An expansion bus will not work in sync with the CPU. In addition, it will not work with the system clock.
what is the communication path between a microprocessor ram and peripherals called?
The data bus.
What is another term for the system bus?
To answer this, it helps to know the history behind this. Early computer components were connected in an ad-hoc fashion. The different components were connected by labeled bundles of cables. From there, the engineers began to standardize these bundles wires and move them to circuit board traces, thus creating the backplane concept. Backplanes can be standalone or part of a motherboard. Backplanes resembled what the electrical industry called bus bars and which were already used in calculators. From there, ICs were developed which standardized the system bus even more. Different manufacturers could use the same basic components. Upgradable computers have what is called an expansion bus or peripheral bus. While that is technically a "system bus," a system bus could include the traces traveling from the CPU to the chipset (particularly the "Northbridge" in computers not using CPUs with an integrated memory controller). Or it could include the traces between the memory and the memory controller (if one is used) or the CPU. So there are multiple system buses in a computer. There is also such a thing as a "local bus," and that is when there are traces directly between the CPU and the peripherals (VESA Local Bus, for instance). While AGP sockets in computers with those communicated with the CPU rather than the chipset, that was technically not local bus since AGP operated independently of the CPU and had their own clock rate derived from the CPU clock.
What does ''USB'' stands for?
Universal Serial Bus connector/device. An innovation devised by the engineers at Intel to standardize how electronic devices (mainly computers and "peripherals") are connected to and communicate with one another.
