PMC: The PCI Mezzanine Card
A standard mezzanine card design, PMC is based on the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) standard bus, which has been universally adopted for use as a high-performance local bus in Pentium-based personal computers. With its further adoption as a mezzanine expansion bus for VMEbus, VME board makers are able to leverage off the economies of scale accruing to the personal computer industry. This development also opens the...

PCI Mezzanine Card @ Wikipedia
A PCI Mezzanine Card or PMC is a printed circuit board manufactured to the IEEE P1386.1 standard. This standard combines the electrical characteristics of the PCI bus with the mechanical dimensions of the Common Mezzanine Card or CMC format (IEEE 1386 standard). A PMC card can have 2 bus connectors ('P1' and 'P2'), supporting 32 bit PCI signals; 3 bus connectors ('P1', 'P2' and 'P3') supporting 64 bit PCI signals, and / or a 4th bus...
