TPMC871 1 Socket PC Card Interface

Application Information 

The TPMC871 is a standard single-width 32 bit PMC 

module with one interface for 16 bit PC Card or 32 bit 

Cardbus cards using a PC Card controller and a power 

management unit. The register map of the PC Card 

controller is Intel 82365-DF compatible. 

The power management unit provides 3.3V or 5.0V 

PC Card power supply and 3.3V, 5.0V or 12V PC Card 

programming voltage. Due to the short circuit and thermal 

protection of the power management unit no external 

fuses are needed on the module. 

The TPMC871 provides full ExCA register implementation 

of one 16 bit PC Card compatible with PCMCIA 2.1/JEIDA 

4.2 standards. Both memory and I/O cards are supported. 

Up to five memory windows and up to two I/O windows are 

available for PC Card 16 accesses. For 32 bit Cardbus 

cards two memory windows and two I/O windows are 

supported by the controller. Cardbus card status 

information can be accessed in five Cardbus socket 

registers which can be mapped in the host memory space. 

For First Time Users the Engineering Documentation 

TPMC871-ED is recommended. The Engineering 

Documentation includes TPMC871-DOC, schematics and 

data sheets. 

Software Support: 

o Software Support (TPMC871-SW-xx) for different 

operating systems is available. 

o The TPMC871 is directly supported from 

WindowsXP/2000 and Linux.
