The PMC Module provides I/O expansion and flexibility by allowing customers to add a wide range of I/O interfaces to Cyclone's PCI and CompactPCI products. Cyclone's CompactPCI cards support one or two modules on a board. Designers can mix and match standard and custom modules to meet unique I/O requirements.
The PMC Module is an IEEE standard (IEEE 1386). The standard uses the PCI bus as an electrical foundation, providing 32-and 64-bit transfers at 33 MHz clock speeds. The PMCX-63 supports PCI-X operation up to 133 MHz. Its is backward compatible with PCI standard 33 and 66 MHz speeds.
