IEEE Standard for a Common Mezzanine Card (CMC) Family and IEEE Standard Physical and Environmental Layers for PCI Mezzanine Cards (PMC) IEEE Computer Society Sponsored by the Microprocessor and Microcomputer Standards Committee (MMSC)
Abstract: The mechanics of a common mezzanine card (CMC) family are defined in this standard. Mezzanine cards, designed to this standard, can be used interchangeably on VME, VME64 and VME64x boards, CompactPCI® boards, Multibus® I and II boards, desktop computers, portable computers, servers, and other similar types of applications. Mezzanine cards can provide modular front panel I/O, backplane I/O or general function expansion or a combination for host computers. Single, wide mezzanine cards are 75 mm wide by 150 mm deep by 8.2 mm high. Keywords: backplane I/O, bezel, board, card, CompactPCI, face plate, front panel I/O, host computer, I/O, local bus, metric, mezzanine, module, modular I/O, Multibus, PCI, VME, VME64, VME64x, VMEbus
