For ISA cards:
ISI4608-ISA, ISI3334-ISA and ISIHI-2S/2U
For PCI cards:
ISI4608-PCI, ISI5634-PCI and ISIHP-2S/2U/4S/4U
Hardware Description :
----------------------
ISA Hardware description :
--------------------------
1) Each ISA card occupies 16 bytes of I/O address on the PC. The address
can start on any 16th address boundary (eg. 100 hex, 110 hex, 120 hex etc.)
The addresses on the ISI are switch selectable. Please refer to
the table below for some sample addresses. Valid I/O addresses are
multiples of 16 starting from 100 hex ending at 3F0 hex.
2) Each ISI ISA card also interrupts the PC by using an interrupt line
(IRQ). The IRQ on the card are jumper selectable. You can choose IRQs
2,3,4,5,7,10,11,12,15.
3) Each ISI requires a unique I/O Address space and a unique interrupt
vector.
PCI Hardware description :
--------------------------
1) ISI PCI card also occupies 16 bytes of I/O address on the PC. The
address are 16bit wide. The address are AUTO assign by the BIOS when
the PC boots up.
2) ISI PCI card also interrupts the PC by using an interrupt line (IRQ).
The IRQ on the card are AUTO assign by the BIOS when the PC boots up
3) Each ISI PCI will get assign a unique I/O Address space and a unique
interrupt vector by the BIOS. But in some cases the BIOS will assign
the same IRQ for two or more ISI PCI cards and this should be ok.
