CIM_SerialController
The CIM_SerialController class explained in Table 3-26 contains controllers that transfer data one bit at
a time to the devices they control, for example, a serial port controlling a modem.
CIM_PCIController
The CIM_PCIController class listed in Table 3-27 contains a set of devices that follow the Peripheral
Component Interconnect (PCI) protocol defined by the Personal Computer Memory Card International
Association (PCMCIA). The PCI protocol defines how data is transferred between devices. The
CIM_PCIController class contains PCI adapters and bridges.
