2. PCI
requirements
PCI stands for "Peripheral Component Interconnect" and refers to standardized means to install an add-on board
inside a computer.
Picolo Jet-X is a medium-size PCI card to be inserted in a PCI-X slot inside a PC. The PCI edge connector is
compliant with the official PCI specification, revision 2.3 and PCI-X addendum revision 1.0. It is 64-bit wide, operates
at 133 MHz maximum, and supports 3.3 V or 5 V signaling systems.
Picolo Jet-X can be used in a 66 MHz, 100 MHz or 133 MHz PCI-X slot.
Picolo Jet-X can be used in a 33 MHz or 66 MHz PCI slot and using the PCI slot with 32-bit or 64-bit.
For more information, see “PCI Bus Variation” application note.
Picolo Jet-X uses the +3.3V, +5 V, +12 V and -12 V power supply rails provided by the PCI bus. The +12 V supply is
only provided to outside devices through the MIO LINK connector. The power consumption on this rail is therefore
system dependent and is protected by a 0.5 A circuit breaker with automatic reset.
Typical electrical consumption is as follows:

Notes:
1. Video Expansion Bracket and Video Expansion Bracket 12 do not consume any power.
2.
These PCI characteristics do also apply to Picolo Jet-X-RC.
