Description

MITAC MPC-106A/PCI R2MI E PCI Flat Panel Control Card Simple Type: System The MPC106 is one device in a family of products that provides system-level support for industry-standard interfaces to be used with PowerPC microprocessors. The MPC106 provides a common hardware reference platform (CHRP) compliant bridge between the PowerPC architecture defined microprocessor family and the peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus. CHRP is a set of specifications that defines a unified system architecture. PCI support allows system designers to design systems rapidly, using peripherals already designed for PCI and the other standard interfaces available in the personal computer hardware environment. These open specifications make it easier for system vendors to design systems capable of running multiple operating systems. The MPC106 integrates secondary cache control and a high-performance memory controller. The MPC106 uses an advanced, 3.3-V CMOS process technology and is fully compatible with TTL devices.
