Peripheral Equipment Interchanges Bytes Of Data
Abstract
Method for conversion of data formats between incompatible computers reduces conversion time by 80 percent. Transposes high and low bytes of word so data from computer A match storage format of computer B. Two interface circuit boards convert data. Such boards ordinarily used for communication between computers. In format-conversion application, cable connecting boards modified so high-8-bit and low-8-bit data lines interchanged with result data words in proper format for computer B.
