that comply with PCI specifications. At 32 bits and 33 MHz, it yields a throughput rate
of 133 MBps.
Important
W hen adding or removing expansion cards, make sure that you unplug the
power supply first. Meanwhile, read the documentation for the expansion card
to configure any necessary hardware or software settings for the expansion
card, such as jumpers, switches or BIOS configuration.

over which devices can send interrupt signals to the microprocessor. The PCI IRQ
