PCI modules are either designed specifically for 5.0 or 3.3 volt slots, or are
universal in design and can plug into either 3.3 or 5.0 volt slots.
CAUTION: PCI modules designed specifically for 5.0 volts or 3.3 volts are keyed
differently. Check the keying before you install the PCI module and
do not force it in. Plugging a module into a wrong slot can damage
it.
PCI Bus Implementation
•
Is fully compliant with the PCI Version 2.2 Specification.
•
Operates at delivering a peak bandwidth of 1.8 GB/sec; over 533 Mbytes/sec
for each 66 MHz bus and over 266 Mbytes/sec for the 33 MHz bus.
•
Has ten option slots (seven of which are hot swap).
•
Supports three address spaces: PCI I/O, PCI memory, and PCI configuration
space
•
Supports byte/word, tri-byte, quadword, and longword operations
•
Exists in noncached address space only
I/O Implementation
The system has 10 I/O slots, with six slots at 66 MHz and four slots at 33 MHz.
The Acer Labs 1543C chip provides the bridge from PCI 0 to ISA. The C-chip
controls accesses to memory on behalf of both P-chips.
I/O Ports
The I/O ports are shown in Section 1.6.
