device pccard

DESCRIPTION

The pcic driver provides support for older ISA and non-Yenta
PCI PC Card
bridges. The pcic driver supports most ExCA devices at
tached to the ISA
bus or PCI devices that do not conform to the Yenta specifi
cation.
The following ISA devices, or true clones, are supported in
the current
code.
Intel i82365SL Step A
Intel i82365SL Step B
Intel i82365SL Step C Intel's original 16-bit PC Card con
troller.
Intel i82365SL-DF Intel's last version of this device.
3.3V support
was added.
VLSI 82C146 An older VLSI part with some issues
on some
machines.
Cirrus Logic PD-6710
Cirrus Logic PD-6720
Cirrus Logic PD-6722 Cirrus Logic's pcic controller. Com
patible with
the i82365SL Step C with the addition
of a different 3.3V control.
Ricoh RF5C296
Ricoh RF5C396 Ricoh's PC Card bridge chips. These
are compati
ble with the i82365SL Step C, but
with yet another
different 3.3V control.

own, incompatible, 3.3V control sys
tem.
IBM PCIC IBM clone of the original i82365SL
part, with its
own ID register value. Has no 3.3V
ability.
Many other vendors made parts in this arena, but most of
them were compatible with one of the above chipsets.
The following PCI pcmcia bridges are supported:
Cirrus Logic PD6729
