A data bus is a group of connections running throughout a digital system (e.g. computer) that attaches to all the various units in that digital system that process or generate data (e.g. ALU, memory, register set, I/O devices). Only one unit that is connected to the data bus can be enabled at a time to drive it with a data value. Most digital systems have only a single data bus, but some (e.g. digital signal processing computers) may have more, allowing several different data values to be passed between units simultaneously instead of just one at a time.

What Are the Types of Buses in a Computer?
There are 2 kinds Data bus and address bus data bus which carries the data ( includes both instruction and data). address bus which carries where the data in the data bus must be sent to in the RAM or which I/O device has to be active to read / write data to the data bus .
What is the data path beween the microprocessor RAM and the peripherals?
Data bus
Definition of Data Bus?
A communications bus which transfers information or data. Most busses are data busses. This can include the Front Side Bus, PCI bus, Memory Bus, and more.
Difference between data bus and data control bus?
An Address Bus gives the memory instructions on where to place the actual data that it will stored or read. Basically a map location. The Data Bus carries the information that is going to be stored or read using the location that the Address Bus gave to the memory. Address bus is unidirectional while data bus is bi directional
Which bus controls the sequencing of read and write operations?
control bus
Is a data bus unidirectional or bidirectional?
The control bus is a unidirectional bus because it can receive the data from any kind of inputs and send back the output. This whole process is done by the data buses.
What is Buses and what does it do?
Data bus - transfers data round system address bus - CPU provides the addresses to where the data must be fetched, through this bus control bus - timing and signals which control data flow in the system.
What is bidirectional bus?
A bus in this context is a data route which can carry data in both directions.
Why data bus is bidirectional bus in Intel 4004?
A data bus is bidirectional because the processor needs it to both read and write. Also, in the case of the 4004, the data bus was tri-multiplexed with the 12 bit address bus and the 8 bit opcode bus.
What is the meaning of the data bus width?
In technology, the bus is used to carry data. The width of a data bus helps determine the amount of bytes that can be carried out each second.
How do you demultiplex address and data bus?
In order to demultiplex the address and data bus, you provide latches that sample the multiplexed bus. At ALE=true, they follow the bus. At ALE=falling edge, they lock onto the last value of the bus. The latches will then become the address bus, while the original bus becomes the data bus.
The width of a data bus is called?
The width of a data bus is referred to as the data path size. An example would be a 16 bit bus can transmit 16 bits of information
