As PCI gains momentum as the preeminent backplane standard, suppliers ofadd-in cards of all types are rushing to get PCI versions to market. ConTInuingits drive to provide single-chip PCI interfaces for every market, PLX offersdesigners its PCI 9050 Bus Target Interface Chip for low cost adapters. The PCI 9050 provides a compact, high performance PCI bus target (slave)interface for adapter boards. It enables rapid, low cost conversion of IndustryStandard Architecture (ISA) adapters to the PCI bus. The PCI 9050 accelerates I/Odata movements on adapter boards from ISA°Os nominal bus speed of 8MHz, 5 Mbytes/second to PCI°Os 33 MHz, 132 Mbytes/second data transfer capabilityFor designers looking for a simple and painless way to convert their ISAadapters, PLX offers the PCI 9050 RDK! It includes a PCI board designed with thePCI 9050 chip, I/O daughter card connector for standard or custom funcTIons, abreadboard area, test headers, and a piggyback ISA slot that enables exisTIng ISAboards to be plugged into the PCI 9050 for software and hardware implementa-TIon. The PCI 9050RDK also includes a set of development software tools, includ-ing PLXMon? for PCI bus monitoring and debug, and example serial/modemdevice drivers for Windows 95.?
