[The following article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It reproduces the Wikipedia article “MSBus”] SBus is a computer bus system that was used in most SPARC-based computers from Sun Microsystems during the 1990s. It was introduced in 1989 to be a high-speed bus counterpart to their high-speed SPARC processors, replacing the earlier (and by this time, outdated) VMEbus that had been used in their earlier Motorola 68030-based systems and early SPARC boxes. When Sun was attempting to “open” the SPARC in the early 1990s, SBus was likewise standardized and became IEEE-1496. In 1997 Sun started to migrate away from SBus onto PCI, and today SBus is no longer used. SBus is in many ways a “clean” design. It was targeted only to the SPARC so many cross-platform issues were simply not a consideration. SBus was based on a big-endian 32-bit address and data bus, can run at speeds ranging from 16.6MHz to 25MHz, and is capable of transferring up to 100Mbyte/second. Devices are each mapped onto a 28-bit address space (16 megabytes). Only eight masters are supported, although there are an unlimited number of slaves. When the 64-bit UltraSPARC was introduced SBus was modified to use clock-doubling and transfer two 32-bit data words per cycle to produce a 200MByte/s 64-bit bus. For contrast, modern 66MHz/64-bit PCI is 528MByte/s. This variant of the SBus architecture used the same connector as the older one, unlike the various versions of PCI. SBus was a peripheral interconnect only (like PCI). Sun systems used another standardized system as a CPU-memory bus, MBus.
