Introduction

This design guide addresses design considerations for designing with either the Intel
I/O processor or the Intel
in design constraints between the two processors is clarified.
The i960 RN I/O Processor is an Intel I/O processor supporting both 64-bit and 32-bit PCI
operation. The i960 RM I/O Processor is an Intel I/O processor only supporting 32-bit PCI
operation.

major signal sections. To simplify routing and minimize the number of cross traces, keep this
layout in mind when placing components in your system. Individual signals within the respective
groups have also been laid out to minimize signal crossings.
For detailed signal descriptions refer to the Tuzigoot Processor Target Specification document.
