The bridging between the system host board and the PMC slot is handled by the transparent PCIe-to-PCI Bridge PI7C9X111SL from Pericom. The PCI bus side of the bridge allows 32-bit PCI accesses with either 33 MHz or 66 MHz. Both 3.3V (TPCE260- x1R) and 5V (TPCE260-x0R) PCI I/O signaling voltages are supported.

3 Handling and Operating Instructions ESD Protection The TPCE260 is sensitive to static electricity. Packing, unpacking and all other handling of the TPCE260 has to be done in an ESD/EOS protected Area. PCI Bus Signaling Voltage and Keying Be sure that the TPCE260 PCI bus signal voltage configuration matches the TPCE260 PMC slots keying pin configuration.
Table 4-2 : PCI Bus Device Number Mapping PCI Clock Frequency The TPCE260 supports 66 MHz PCI clock frequency. The actual PCI clock frequency on the TPCE260 is configured by the plugged PMC module. If the plugged PMC module supports 66 MHz operation, the PCI bus will operate with 66 MHz;...
The TPCE260 supports PMC cards only. The TPCE260 indicates the “PMC only” support with the signal levels presented in the table below. The PMC card should decode these signals and drive out a logic “0” on BUSMODE1#.
3.3V Keying Pin Keying Pin Figure 5-2 : PMC Voltage Keying Use the following table to identify the required TPCE260 voltage keying for the actual PMC modules that are to be used. TPCE260 V_I/O TPCE260 5V TPCE260 3.3V...
The PMC modules are mounted to the TPCE260 prior to installation into the system. If the PMC has a front panel, first remove the cover from the PMC front panel cut-out of the TPCE260. Install the PMC at an angle so that the PMC front panel penetrates the PMC front panel cut-out. Then rotate down to mate with the PMC connectors on the TPCE260.
