PCI1520 Implementation Guide
Computer Connectivity Solutions
ABSTRACT
This document is provided to assist platform designers using the PCI1520 dual-socket PC
Card controller. Detailed information can be found in the PCI1520 data manual.
However, this document provides design suggestions for the various options when
designing in the PCI1520.
