More Information
Summary:Disclosed is an integrated PCI interface card, comprising a multi-functional IC chip, a first set of signal lines, a mono-functional IC chip, and a second set of signal lines. The multi-functional IC chip includes a plurality of functional circuits and an arbiter, and each of the first set of signal lines and the second set of signal lines includes the signal lines required in the PCI bus transactions. The first set of signal lines is arranged to couple the multi-functional IC chip to a PCI bus, and a request signal line, a grant signal line, and an initialization device select signal line of the second set of signal lines are arranged to couple the multi-functional IC chip and the mono-functional IC chip, while the other signal lines of the second set of signal lines are arranged to couple the mono-functional IC chip to the PCI bus.
