Question CPU coordinations with other components

[Rex8407]

How does the BSB, FSB, cpu, memory and cache coordinates and can you explain using the northern and southern bridges

homework?

Computer parts coordinate with each other primarily via two things:

• A clock signal, which synchronizes them
• A communication protocol, so the parts can "talk" to each other

If you want to know more, I suggest going to Wikipedia first.

thank you, i know the clock keeps the timing, but am kinda confused as to how the FSB co ordinates with the cpu and the bridges and the cache
