Features: Currently, all modern personal computers and most servers adopt the PCI Local Bus Specification 2.2 version. PCI-X represents advanced PCI technology. This book covers all content of the PCI Local Bus Specification and the PCI Bus Specification 2.2 and 3.0 versions to date, including new Engineering Change Notices (ECN) and Engineering Change Requests (ECR), as well as the new content in the PCI-X Supplement Specification 1.0a version. It provides complete and accurate information for designs using all three bus specifications or compatible with them, comprehensively covering the hardware design of bus segments and the hardware and software requirements of multi-bridge, multi-bus systems. This book was co-authored and revised by design engineers from Intel and Compaq, and is considered the "bible" of PCI, as well as an international standard for PCI and CompactPCI design.
