A Note on PCMCIA Standards
The PCMCIA (Personal Computer Memory Card
International Association) was created in 1989 to establish
and monitor standards for these IC (integrated circuit)
cards. There are three types of cards which differ only in
thickness size: Type I, Type II, and Type III. All three use
the same 68-pin connector which attaches the card to the
notebook or laptop computer. The cards are downward
compatible.
Software requirements for these cards are known as card
services and socket services. Card services controls
communications between the PCMCIA card and your
computer. Socket services monitors each PCMCIA slot to
determine if a card is present, so your computer can make
use of the card’s utilities.
Flexibility . A notebook or laptop computer with a
PCMCIA slot allows greater flexibility for adding and
interchanging components (e.g., modems, LAN cards).
