The ExpressCard has a maximum throughput of 2.5 Gbit/s through PCI Express and 480 Mbit/s through USB 2.0 dedicated for each slot, while all CardBus and PCI devices connected to a computer usually share a total 1.06 Gbit/s bandwidth. The ExpressCard standard specifies voltages of either 1.5 V or 3.3 V; CardBus slots can use 3.3 V or 5.0 V.
Eurocard is an IEEE standard format for printed circuit board (PCB) cards that can be plugged together into a standard chassis which, in turn, can be mounted in a 19-inch rack. The chassis consists of a series of slotted card guides on the top and bottom, into which the cards are slid so they stand on end, like books on a shelf.
ExpressCard-to-CardBus and Cardbus-to-ExpressCard adapters are available that connect a Cardbus card to an Expresscard slot, or vice versa, and carry out the required electrical interfacing. [20] These adapters do not handle older non-Cardbus PCMCIA cards. PC Card devices can be plugged into an ExpressCard adaptor, which provides a PCI-to-PCIe ...
The Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) was an industry consortium of computer hardware manufacturers from 1989 to 2009. Starting with the PCMCIA card in 1990 (the name later simplified to PC Card), it created various standards for peripheral interfaces designed for laptop computers.

The "ExpressCard/54" format is 54x75mm, however, it has rectangular chunk removed from one corner and thus is not rectangular, but rather has 6 edges. The "ExpressCard/34" form factor is 34x75mm, and looks kind of like a stick of gum (or, from a computer perspective, kind of like the original early Sony "Memory Stick").
A PCI Mezzanine Card or PMC is a printed circuit board assembly manufactured to the IEEE P1386.1 [1] standard. This standard combines the electrical characteristics of the PCI bus with the mechanical dimensions of the Common Mezzanine Card or CMC format (IEEE 1386 standard).
