PI7C8150AMAE-33

Specialized Overview

The PI7C8150AMAE-33 is a PCI-to-PCI bridge manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, operating at a maximum clock frequency of 33 MHz. It features two 32-bit ports and supports a supply voltage of 3.3 V. The device operates within an extended commercial temperature range from 0°C to +85°C. It is housed in a 208-pin FQFP package designed for surface mount installation.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Supports Type 1 to Type 0 configuration conversion and Type 1 to Type 1 forwarding
• Includes internal programmable arbiter with priority control for secondary bus masters
• Features posted write buffers and dedicated FIFOs for delay transactions

Specialized Applications

• Connecting primary and secondary PCI buses in computer systems
• Expanding PCI bus capacity through multi-port bridging
• Implementing hot-plug capable PCI architectures

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify the component status as End-of-Life (EOL) before procurement planning. Confirm that the manufacturer has ceased production and will discontinue this part number. Ensure any existing stock meets current project requirements or plan for alternative sourcing strategies due to limited availability.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this model when a 33 MHz synchronous PCI bridge is required for 32-bit data buses. Verify compatibility with the PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.3 and ACPI standards. Ensure the system design accommodates the 208-pin FQFP package dimensions and thermal characteristics for the specified operating temperature range.

Specialized Part Context

This component belongs to the PI7C8150A series of PCI-to-PCI bridges. It shares architectural similarities with the PI7C8140AMAE but differs in its specific clock speed rating. Both devices utilize the same 208-pin FQFP package and support identical interface protocols.
