| | TechFest - PCI Local Bus Technical Summary |
| | PCI was first adopted for use in personal computers in about 1994 with Intel's introduction of the "Saturn" chipset and "Alfredo" motherboard for the 486 processor. | | | Under the PCI SIG the definition of PCI was extended to define a standard expansion bus interface connector for add-in boards. | | | Later, Revision 2.1 of the PCI specification extended the bus definition to support operation at 66 MHz, but the vast majority of today's personal computers continue to implement a PCI bus that runs at a maximum speed of 33 MHz. |

| | Quatech PCI Bus Overview |
| | First released in 1992, the Peripheral Component Interface (PCI) has rapidly evolved into a viable replacement for the ISA bus, and is the most commonly used method for adding boards to a PC. | | | PCI provides a new way of connecting peripherals to both the system memory and the CPU, with the goal of alleviating many problems encountered when installing new cards in an ISA based system (IRQ conflicts, address conflicts, etc.). | | | To ensure the longevity of the bus, not only are systems based on newer PCI specifications backward compatible with those designed to older ones, PCI boards may also be used in a system that also uses ISA bus cards--however, this is becoming increasingly rate as ISA is rapidly becoming obsolete. |

| | PCI is also used on newer versions of the Macintosh computer. | | | The PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group is a consortium of over 160 industrial computer product vendors who develop specifications for PCI-based systems and boards for use in industrial computing applications. | | | Although it was developed by Intel, PCI is not tied to any particular family of microprocessors. |

| | PCI is now installed on most new desktop computers, not only those based on Intel's Pentium processor but also those based on the PowerPC. | | | Designed by Intel, the original PCI was similar to the VESA Local Bus. | | | Using PCI, a computer can support both new PCI cards while continuing to support Industry Standard Architecture (ISA) expansion cards, an older standard. |

| | AGP is fundamentally a 66 MHz PCI bus (version 2.1) which has been enhanced with other technologies making it suitable for the graphics system. | | | Therefore, the PCI (contrary to the VL bus) is not a local bus in a strict sense. | | | The PCI bus is compatible with the ISA bus in that it can react on ISA bus signals, create the same IRQs, etc. |
