PCI Bridge Card
The multiprocessor bus-to-PCI bridge is a special adapter that physically plugs into two sockets, one on the multiprocessor bus and one on the PCI bus. The circuitry on this card controls the movement of data between the processor complexes, memory cards and the I/O adapters on the Micro Channel and PCI buses. It implements a split bus design so that during slower I/O operations the multiprocessor bus can be made available for processor to memory transfers without having to wait on the I/O transfer.

Symptom The PC Server 720 (8642) hangs or fails to boot. Fix Inspect the EMC shield on the bridge card. Locate the metal
clip (one of four) on the component side near capacitor C66. If the clip
appears too close to capacitor C66, remove the EMC shield, and cut out
the corner of the metal clip to increase the clearance from the capacitor
Some bridge cards were undercut at the EMC
shield attach point which could cause a short to the C66 capacitor.
SUBJECT: INTERMITTENT HANGS - SERVER PC720(8642) SYMPTOM:
PROBLEM ISOLATION AIDS:
FIX:
Bridge card 75H7667 (fru Part Number 71G0694) requires J24 pins 1+2 to be Short circuit ( ie. the 2 pins of J24 nearest the back of the machine.) REASON :
