| P-bus and I-bus |
A bus is a number of wires on which information is sent digitally and serially. Digital means that the voltage difference between two wires has only two values, about 0V or 5V. The information is coded so that different combinations of pulses with values 0V and 5V have different meanings.
Serial means that the information is sent in ”packets” one after the other in rapid succession.
The buses consist of a P-bus (Powertrain Bus) and an I-bus (Instrument Bus). Both buses are connected to the MIU (Main Instrument Unit). The buses are electrically isolated from each other.
As in the 9-5, the Airbag and ABS control modules are not bus connected.
The diagnostic tool is not connected directly to the bus but communicates via the DICE, one of the control modules connected to the I-bus, and so has access to all control modules connected to the bus.
The P-bus has a data transfer rate ten times higher than that of the I-bus. This is because the P-bus requires information with the least possible delay.
All the information sent from one control module is accessible for all other control modules on the bus. The MIU is responsible for ensuring that information available on one bus is also available on the other bus.
The control modules send out information on the bus at regular intervals. The time between two transmissions depends on the information being sent and varies between 10 milliseconds (0.010 seconds) and 1 second. Information is also sent out by the control modules whenever the information changes.
Transmission of information between control modules occurs on two leads, bus+ (green lead) and bus- (white lead). The leads are twisted to increase tolerance to electrical interference.
