PCI Express Mini Card
The QEVAL 2.0 is equipped with a PCI Express Mini Card socket. PCI Express Mini Card is a unique small size form factor optimized for mobile
computing platforms equipped with communication applications such as wireless LAN. The small footprint connector can be implemented on
carrier board designs providing the ability to insert different removable PCI Express Mini Cards. Using this approach gives the flexibility to
mount an upgradable, standardized PCI Express Mini Card device to the carrier board without additional expenditure of a redesign. The PCI
Express Mini Card utilizes USB port 2 and PCI Express link 0. The table below lists the default pinout of the PCI Express Mini Card
