Zorro II: None

ISA: None
PCI: 4 (Active, 2.1 compliant, 33Mhz)
Video Slots: None
Other: None

The Mediator PCI ZIII is designed to be plugged into a Zorro III based Amiga, including the A3000 series, A4000 series machines as well as A1200's fitted with a Zorro III busboard. This card is probably suited to "custom" solutions as the PCI cards will be at right angles to the Zorro cards and therefore probably won't fit in most cases, or at best won't align with the backplates.

PCI Features

  • 33MHz PCI clock (66MHz with the as yet unreleased SharkPPC)
  • PCI transfers up to 132MB/sec (33Mhz), 264MB/sec (66Mhz)
  • 4GB PCI memory space, accessed through a 512MB window in Zorro III address space
  • Busmastering/DMA in all PCI slots
  • Can use the SDRAM/SGRAM of a PCI graphics card as a DMA buffer
  • Address and data parity control support
  • Interrupt controller (4 lines to each PCI card)
