Slot requirement
For details about slot priorities, maximums, and placement rules, see PCIe adapter placement rules
and slot priorities (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/POWER9/p9eab/
p9eab_mtm_pciplacement.htm) and select the system you are working on.
Voltage
3.3 V
Form factor
Half-length, with full-height tail stock
Dual card (Mother-daughter)
Attributes provided
Supported cryptographic mode: Common Cryptographic Architecture (CCA)
PPC 476 Processors run in lockstep and the outputs of each core are compared cycle by cycle
Error Checking and Correction (ECC) protection on DDR3 memory
Cryptographic key generation and random number generation
Over 300 cryptographic algorithms and modes
Byte wide parity protection on all internal registers and data paths wider than two bits
RSA/ECC engines are protected by a duplicate engine which predicts the CRC of the result
SHA, MD5, AES and DES engines are protected by running the same operation on two independent
engines and the outputs are compared cycle by cycle.

Operating system or partition requirements
If you are installing a new feature, ensure that you have the software that is required to support the new
feature and that you determine whether any prerequisites must be met for this feature and attaching
devices. For information about operating system and partition requirements, see one of the following
topics:
• The latest version of enabling libraries and utilities can be downloaded from Fix Central (http://
www.ibm.com/support/fixcentral/).
• Power Systems Prerequisites (http://www14.software.ibm.com/support/customercare/iprt/home).
• IBM SSIC (System Storage Interoperation Center) (http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/support/storage/
ssic/interoperability.wss).
• The latest version of the device driver or IBM Power RAID adapter utilities (iprutils) can be downloaded
from the IBM Service and Productivity Tools website (http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/
set2/sas/f/lopdiags/home.html).
