  • Page 15: Pci Compatibility

    Required Supported Supported The SST-PFB3-PCI requires both 3.3V and 5V to be supplied by the motherboard. Because 3.3V supply voltage is optional in PCI revision 2.1, the SST-PFB3-PCI may not function in some PCI 2.1-compliant motherboards. The SST-PFB3-PCI will auto-detect the motherboard PCI I/O signaling level and adjust its signaling level accordingly, allowing it to function in PCI systems that support either 5V or 3.3V I/O signaling levels.
