Introduction
The mPCI-4 is a highly integrated miniPCI adapter card for PC/104-
Plus
systems.
The mPCI-4 card supports up to 4 Type-III miniPCI cards in a single PC/104-
Plus
stack location and provides an ideal way of adding advanced functionality to
space constrained systems.
The mPCI-4 uses active PCI-PCI bridging to support 4x miniPCI cards in a single
PC/104-
Plus
stack location. This allows the mPCI-4 to consume only 1 set of PCI
resources and allows up to 4 mPCI-4 cards to be used in a system.
The mPCI-4 is an ideal partner to standard miniPCI cards such as wireless
Ethernet and to AMP’s range of miniPCI advanced compression boards. Compact
video compression or streaming systems can be constructed using AMP’s
microH264-D4 or microMPEG4-D4 compression cards and wireless can be easily
integrated using standard WLAN cards.
