This standard, in conjunction with IEEE Std 1386-2001, IEEE Standard for a Common Mezzanine Card (CMC) Family, defines the physical and environmental layers of a PCI mezzanine card (PMC) family to be usable on (but not limited to) single slot VME, VME64 and VME64x boards,Compact PCI boards, Multibus I and Multibus II boards, desktop computers, portable computers,servers, and similar types of applications. The electrical and logical layers are based on the PCI specification from the PCI Special Interest Group. The PCI mezzanine cards allow for a variety of optional function expansions for the host system. I/O functionality from the PMC may be either through the mezzanine front panel, or via the backplane by routing the I/O signals through the mezzanine connector to the host.

Other Activities From This Working Group
Current projects that have been authorized by the IEEE SA Standards Board to develop a standard.
No Active Projects
Standards approved by the IEEE SA Standards Board that are within the 10-year lifecycle.
No Active Standards
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
1386-2001
IEEE Standard for a Common Mezzanine Card Family: CMC
Administratively withdrawn January 2007. 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 andVME64x boards, CompactPCI u00a4 boards, Multibus u00a4 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.
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
