MiniModule 1394

Ampro MiniModule™ 1394

Handy PC/104 module lets you add up to two 400Mbps Firewire ports.

The MiniModule™ 1394 board provides a high performance PCI-based platform for incorporation of up to two IEEE 1394 Firewire bus interfaces into a PC/104-Plus embedded system. Based on Version 1.1 of the IEEE 1394 OHCI standard, MiniModule 1394 offers support for a variety of Firewire devices such as high performance video cameras operating with transfer rates up to 400Mbps. The card provides both PC/104-Plus and PC/104 interfaces, although the PC/104 interface is utilized only to pass through bus signals and for mechanical stability. Control signals are all obtained from the PC/104-Plus (PCI) bus.
