Product details
Overview
PCI1510GVF from Texas Instruments is a 209-terminal PBGA CardBus-to-PCI bridge controller supporting single-slot hot-plug PC Card and CardBus sockets. It delivers >130-Mbps throughput, integrates a 2.5-V LDO voltage regulator, supports 5-V/3.3-V mixed-card operation, and implements Intel 82365SL-DF register compatibility for legacy system integration in notebook host designs.
For engineers reviewing the PCI1510GVF datasheet, PCI1510GVF pinout, PCI1510GVF application, or PCI1510GVF equivalent, key selection criteria include its NRND status, 209-ball PBGA (GVF) package, ExCA-compliant memory/I/O window mapping, and support for serialized/parallel PCI/ISA interrupt signaling in embedded host controller implementations.
Technical Context
The PCI1510GVF implements a pipelined data path architecture enabling sustained burst transfers between PCI and CardBus domains, with full 32-bit PCI cycles used to access 8-/16-/32-bit cards. Its internal buffering eliminates need for external hot-swap protection circuitry.
It operates as both PCI master and slave, initiates bus mastering during CardBus bridging, and complies with PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification Rev. 1.1. The device includes five PCI memory windows, two I/O windows for the 16-bit interface, and two additional I/O and memory windows dedicated to the CardBus socket.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PCI-to-CardBus bridge applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| PCI1510PGE | 144-pin LQFP package; identical electrical functionality and register set; RoHS-compliant green packaging | Preferred for cost-sensitive, non-space-constrained designs where BGA assembly is unavailable | Select PCI1510PGE when PCB assembly lacks BGA reflow capability or when thermal management favors exposed-pad QFP |
| PCI1510ZVF | 209-ball PBGA like PCI1510GVF but Pb-Free (RoHS) SnAgCu finish; same pinout and timing specs | Required for new designs targeting EU medical or industrial certifications mandating lead-free soldering | Choose PCI1510ZVF over PCI1510GVF only when RoHS compliance is contractually enforced and MSL-3 handling is supported |
Compared with PCI1510GVF, PCI1510PGE offers identical functionality in a manufacturable LQFP package ideal for prototyping, while PCI1510ZVF provides the same 209-ball footprint with Pb-Free finish-making it suitable for regulated markets where PCI1510GVF's SnPb balls are prohibited.

FAQ
What is the package type and ball count for PCI1510GVF?
The PCI1510GVF uses a 209-terminal plastic ball-grid array (PBGA) package designated GVF, with 27 mm × 27 mm body size and 1.27-mm ball pitch. This package is distinct from the 144-ball GGU/ZGU variants and requires specific PCB land pattern and reflow profile per TI's MTQF017A mechanical drawing. PCI1510GVF must be handled as MSL Level-3 per JEDEC standards.
Is PCI1510GVF pin-compatible with other PCI1510 variants?
No-PCI1510GVF is not pin-compatible with 144-pin variants (PGE, GGU, ZGU) due to differing ball counts, pitch, and signal allocation. While functionally identical to PCI1510ZVF in logic and register map, PCI1510GVF uses SnPb ball finish versus ZVF's SnAgCu, requiring separate assembly validation. PCI1510GVF shares no mechanical or electrical pinout with PGE or GGU packages.
Does PCI1510GVF support both 16-bit PC Cards and 32-bit CardBus cards?
Yes-PCI1510GVF fully supports mix-and-match operation of 5-V 16-bit PC Cards and 3.3-V 32-bit CardBus cards in the same socket. It detects card type and voltage class via CD1#/CD2# pins, configures I/O and memory windows accordingly, and applies appropriate signaling levels-enabling backward compatibility without host firmware changes.
What power supplies are required to operate PCI1510GVF?
PCI1510GVF requires only a single 3.3-V supply for I/O and PCI interface operation; its integrated 2.5-V LDO regulator generates the core logic voltage internally. No external 2.5-V rail is needed. The device draws ≤250 mA typical under full burst load, with dynamic power gating in suspend modes reducing quiescent current to <50 µA.
Is PCI1510GVF suitable for new designs given its NRND status?
PCI1510GVF is marked NRND (Not Recommended for New Designs) by Texas Instruments, indicating it remains in production solely to support existing customer programs. For new designs, TI recommends evaluating PCI1510ZVF (Pb-Free) or migrating to newer platform solutions. Aetrix Electronics maintains active inventory and provides lifecycle coordination for PCI1510GVF in legacy refresh scenarios.
