PC cards are about the size of a few stacked credit cards and have a 68-pin connector at one end. The PC Card standard accommodates a number of function, communication, and data storage expansion options. PC cards come in memory/flash cards, fax/modems, networking adapters, SCSI adapters, MPEG I/II decoder cards, Smart Cards, and even wireless modem or LAN cards. The Notebook PC supports PCMCIA 2. 1, and 32-bit CardBus standards. The three different PC Card standards actually have different thicknesses. Type I cards are 3. 3mm, Type II cards are 5mm, and Type III cards are 10. 5mm thick. Type I and Type II cards can be used in a single socket and Type III cards take up two sockets. 32-bit CardBus Support CardBus support allows PC Cards and their hosts to use 32-bit bus mastering and operate at speeds of up to 33MHz, transferring data in burst modes comparable with PCI's 132MB/sec.
