PCI Bus Interface (Two Instances)
Each interface is marked by either the letter “A” or “B” to signify the interface. Therefore, A_AD
refers to the AD bus on PCI bus A, and B_AD refers to the AD bus on PCI bus B. For pin names
described in the following sections, an ‘X’ in the name indicates either A or B, for the PCI bus A
and PCI bus B sides. For example, X_PAR signal would be called A_PAR on the PCI bus A and
B_PAR on the PCI bus B.
