Controllers
During the first quarter of 2006 Barco Medical Imaging Systems added
PCI Express (PCIe) versions of its Coronis and Coronis 5MP display
controllers to its grayscale Medical Imaging Display Systems product
line. The PCIe versions of these boards will have the same features as
the currently shipping PCI version.
All three PCIe boards will feature a x8 logical bus on a x8 physical
connector. They have been designed to function in PCI Express x8 or x16
slots. Optimum performance will always be obtained by installing them
in a PCIe x8 slot. Depending on your PC manufacturer’s implementation
of the logic for the PCIe x16 slot optimum performance may also be
obtained by installing the Barco PCIe boards in the PCIe x16 slot.
Connecting your Barco displays to your BarcoMed PCIe board is identical
to connecting them to a BarcoMed PCI board (please refer to your
system manual for details).
