Seeadapter.

HP-PB

Hewlett-Packard Precision Bus. The data, control, and addressingsignal lines for input/output operation on Hewlett-Packard PA-RISC computer systems. HP-PB is the 32-bit system-architectedbus through which the CPU, memory, and input/output adapter cards communicate.

HP-PB card

Seeadapter.

Interface card

Seeadapter.

UO

Input/Output. The computer subsystemthrough which data communicationswith external devicesis performed.

IODC

I/O Dependent Code. In PA-RISC computers,IODC is ROM-based firmware on an adapter card that is usedfor supplying card-dependent information to the host computer. Thii codemay contain test routines that check operation of the card.

LED
