Ultra100™ TX2 User Manual

General Card Description

The Ultra100 TX2 is designed to support newer motherboards with a PCI bus speed

of 66MHz (versus earlier 33MHz models). The faster bus speed provides up to

266MB per second bandwidth. The card is backward compatible allowing you to

install the controller into a 33MHz PCI bus motherboard where it will allow maximum

data transfers of up to 133MB per second across the bus. Please note that actual

transfer rates will depend on the capabilities of each device attached to the controller.

The controller installs easily into any available PCI slot on your system’s motherboard.

The Ultra100 TX2 controller card provides two IDE channels that support Ultra

ATA/100 protocols, perfect for such demanding applications as real-time video,

multimedia, and high-performance operating systems.

Ultra100 TX2’s two IDE connectors each support a master/slave combination of IDE

devices, including Ultra ATA, EIDE, IDE, Fast-ATA, and ATAPI. Devices of different

standards can be connected to Ultra100 TX2 without performance degradation, due

to the independent programmable timing registers in the controller’s design.
