Part Number: 01-04740-05 ## Overview PCI expansion chassis enabling single full-length PCI card connectivity via CardBus/PCMCIA interface. Provides external PCI slot access for laptops and portable computers lacking internal expansion capabilities. Features dedicated power supply, cooling system, and signal conditioning circuitry for stable PCI bus extension. Supports 32-bit/33MHz PCI specification with hot-swapping protection. Interfaces through standard Type II CardBus controller, maintaining full PCI bandwidth and compatibility. Common applications include adding specialized PCI cards like data acquisition boards, video capture cards, or legacy interface adapters to notebook computers for field testing, portable workstations, or industrial control systems. ## Function Compact external PCI expansion system offering single slot expansion capability for PC systems, enabling connection of PCI cards to computers with CardBus/PCMCIA interfaces. Provides full-length PCI slot support, extending desktop functionality to portable platforms. Features bus-mastering capability, hot-swap support, and transparent operation for connected peripherals. Supplies necessary power and cooling for installed PCI cards. Enables notebook computers to utilize desktop PCI cards including high-performance graphics, data acquisition, and specialized I/O cards through a standard CardBus interface. ## Platform This system extends a host's PCI bus via a CardBus interface, enabling the integration of a single full-length 32-bit/33MHz PCI expansion card into portable or embedded computing platforms. It functions as an external chassis housing the PCI card, providing necessary power and data pathways. Interfacing through a PCMCIA Type II/III slot on the host, it facilitates the use of specialized PCI peripherals like data acquisition, video capture, or legacy I/O cards in environments where desktop PCI slots are unavailable, such as laptops or small form-factor PCs, for applications in field diagnostics or mobile test setups. ## Application Applications of this type of 1 Slot PCI Expansion System with CardBus (PCMCIA) and full-length PCI card support include providing external PCI or PCI Express slot expansion for host computers, especially laptops or small form factor systems that lack internal PCI slots. It enables mobile or compact systems to use full-length, power-hungry PCI addon cards by extending the PCI bus externally while maintaining native PCI or PCIe signal integrity and performance. Typical use cases are mobile test/development platforms, field upgrade kiosks, and portable instrumentation systems requiring specialized PCI cards. The system allows connections via CardBus (PCMCIA) interface and supports full-length PCI cards with appropriate power and cooling. ## Accessories PCI host interface card with CardBus (PCMCIA) interface, 1-slot full-length PCI expansion chassis including PCI backplane, power supply (external power brick), cooling fan, PCI expansion cable (typically 1 to 1.5 meter iPass cable), and power cord with barrel-to-XLR-4 connector; the system connects to host computer via a PCI host card installed inside the host, supporting full-length standard PCI cards; backplane supports CardBus interface for expansion; auxiliary power connectors available for cards requiring more than 75W; enclosure is rack-mountable and includes thermistor-controlled fans for cooling. ## Interface Host connectivity via a CardBus (PCMCIA) Type II/III 68-pin slot, providing a 32-bit/33MHz data path. An external, proprietary multi-conductor cable links the CardBus adapter to the expansion chassis, transmitting PCI bus signals. The chassis contains one full-length 32-bit/33MHz PCI slot (120-pin, 5V keyed) for expansion cards. External DC power input is via a barrel jack. ## Images - - - -
