Product details
Overview
PCI1410GGU from Texas Instruments is a PCI-to-PC Card controller supporting single-slot 16-bit PC Card and CardBus sockets with 3.3-V core logic, 5-V/3.3-V mixed-card compatibility, and pipelined architecture enabling >130-Mbps sustained throughput. It provides five PCI memory windows, two I/O windows, register compatibility with Intel 82365SL-DF/SL, and supports hot insertion/removal via internal buffering.
For engineers reviewing the PCI1410GGU datasheet, PCI1410GGU pinout, PCI1410GGU application, or PCI1410GGU equivalent, key selection considerations include its MicroStar BGA™ (GGU) 144-ball package, ExCA register mapping in memory/I/O space, D3hot/D3cold wake capability, and support for parallel/serial ISA/PCI interrupts in legacy mobile/desktop bridge designs.
Technical Context
The PCI1410GGU implements a full PCI Local Bus Specification-compliant interface acting as both master and slave, with bus mastering initiated during 16-bit PC Card DMA or CardBus bridging. Its internal data path handles 8-/16-/32-bit card access using full 32-bit PCI cycles.
It integrates Exchangeable Card Architecture (ExCA) registers mapped into memory and I/O space, supports CLKRUN programmability, distributed DMA (DDMA), and features socket activity LED pins, ring indicator, SUSPEND, and CCLKRUN signaling - all aligned with the 1997 PC Card Standard and PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification for PCI-to-CardBus bridges.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PCI-to-PC Card bridge applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PCI1420GGU | Enhanced version with additional GPIOs (up to 8), improved power management, and extended temperature range support | Targeted for industrial environments requiring wider operating temperature and higher I/O flexibility | Select PCI1420GGU when additional general-purpose I/Os or extended thermal performance is required |
| PCI1225GHL | Lower-pin-count (100-ball) BGA variant with reduced memory window count (three instead of five) and no CardBus support | Optimized for cost-sensitive 16-bit-only PC Card applications without CardBus requirements | Choose PCI1225GHL only for fixed-function 16-bit PC Card slots where CardBus compatibility is unnecessary |
Compared with PCI1410GGU, PCI1420GGU offers greater I/O flexibility and thermal robustness for industrial deployment, while PCI1225GHL trades CardBus support and window count for lower cost and footprint in dedicated 16-bit applications - neither is pin-compatible, and PCB redesign is required for substitution.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the PCI1410GGU?
The PCI1410GGU is a PCI-to-PC Card controller that bridges a host PCI bus to a single 16-bit PC Card or CardBus socket. It handles protocol translation, ExCA register mapping, power management, and hot insertion/removal signaling. The PCI1410GGU supports both 5-V and 3.3-V cards, provides five PCI memory windows, and delivers >130-Mbps sustained throughput using a pipelined architecture - making it suitable for legacy notebook and docking station designs.
Is the PCI1410GGU still in production?
No, the PCI1410GGU is marked as OBSOLETE by Texas Instruments per its official packaging information. TI discontinued production, and the device is not recommended for new designs (NRND status applies to related variants). However, Aetrix Electronics maintains limited inventory and supports legacy system repair and continuity programs for customers relying on this controller in deployed equipment.
What package type does the PCI1410GGU use?
The PCI1410GGU uses a 144-terminal MicroStar BGA™ package designated GGU, with a 0.8-mm ball pitch and 12.0 mm × 12.0 mm body size. This is distinct from the PGE (144-pin LQFP) and GHK (209-ball BGA) variants. Mechanical drawing MPBG021C defines the exact footprint, solder mask, and coplanarity specifications required for reliable assembly.
Does the PCI1410GGU support CardBus functionality?
Yes, the PCI1410GGU fully supports CardBus - the 32-bit, 33-MHz extension of the PC Card standard. It provides two I/O windows and two memory windows dedicated to the CardBus socket, enables burst transfers, and complies with the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification for PCI-to-CardBus bridges. The PCI1410GGU also supports mix-and-match operation of 5-V/3.3-V 16-bit cards and 3.3-V CardBus cards within the same system.
How does the PCI1410GGU handle power management?
The PCI1410GGU complies with the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification and supports wake from D3hot and D3cold states. It integrates low-power CMOS technology and multiple sleep modes coordinated with host power management systems. The device manages PC Card VCC switching, supports CLKRUN programmability for clock gating, and enables fast posted writes to improve PCI bus utilization - all contributing to reduced system-level power consumption in mobile platforms.
