Glossary: Product Features Explained
Universal PCI
Universal products allow compatibility with both 3.3 Volt and 5 Volt PCI systems. This ensures that Brainboxes
universal card range is backward compatible with older systems and works with all new PCI systems.

Autogating
When the device is set to half duplex mode, transmitted and received data is sent across the same signal lines.
Autogating means the Brainboxes card knows when to 'listen' for data and when to transmit data, with a quick
and automatic hardware switch between the 2 modes. This is much faster than software switching and ensures
no data loss due to turnaround delay.

Low-Profile PCI is a new PCI card standard for space-constrained system designs. The new form factors maintain
the same electricals, PC signals and software drivers as standard PCI v3.0 expansion cards. They are also
mechanically similar; however, Low-Profile PCI is an additional form factor that defines a shorter raw card and new
mounting bracket for card retention.

Electrical Protection
All Brainboxes RS422/485 cards have transient spike protection. This protects against noise on the signal line which
can be created by: electrical surges on the other device, nearby magnetic field interactions and background noise.
Assuring safe and reliable operation in almost any environment.

PCI Compliant
All Brainboxes Universal PCI cards are fully PCI version 3.0 compliant, in accordance with the PCI-Special Interest
Group (PCI-SIG).
Group (PCI-SIG).
Large FIFO
FIFO means First In First Out, a FIFO is memory space on the Brainboxes card. A larger FIFO allows more memory
space for buffering data, so calls to the computer processor are less frequent. This significantly increases data
throughput and improves CPU availability for other applications.

4 Layer PCB
Printed Circuit Board with 4 layers of circuitry complies with the PCI SIG best practice guideline and ensures a more
reliable card. 1 layer is for power and 1 for ground which leads to greater EMC shielding for the signals. This
ultimately gives greater signal integrity for sensitive timing applications.

Surface Mount Components
Most components on a Brainboxes card are placed by a surface mount machine. The surface mount machine
allows for highly accurate and fast production of Brainboxes cards. Orders can be met quickly, reliably and with
outstanding quality.
