CardBus technology brings desktop PCI power management features to the laptop environment.
The CardBus card possesses the same physical characteristics as the standard Type II PC card and was conceived as a means of adding higher bandwidth capabilities to the notebook. By taking advantage of internal bus speeds, the CardBus can operate at speeds six times faster than its 16-bit PC card predecessor and five times faster than a 100Mbps PC card. In addition, CardBus PC cards operate at 3.3 volts thereby saving power and prolonging battery life.
