Features

GENERAL

  • SAS/SATA active/active mux with NCQ.
  • Low latency switching between two simultaneously active host ports and the target port.
  • Supports NCQ command streams and non-queued (ATA, ATAPI-7) command streams simultaneously and transparently from both hosts.
  • SAS serial retimer.
  • 6 General Purpose I/O (GPIO) pins available for uses including activity LEDs and HDD control.
  • Diagnostics for fault isolation.
  • Integrated crystal oscillator.
  • Single 1.8 V power supply.

SYSTEM LEVEL FEATURES

  • System level HDD power control when working with a SAS expander. Read/Write to registers using in-band Register FIS.
  • System level fault isolation when working with an SAS expander. Diagnostic information communicated to system via in-band Register FIS.
  • SPS provides multiple loopback modes including HDD metallic loopback.

HIGH SPEED I/O

  • 1.5 Gbit/s and 3.0 Gbit/s SAS/SATA compliant operation.
  • Automatic negotiation of link speed.

  • Programmable transmit output swing to support SAS and SATA Gen1i, Gen1x, Gen2i, Gen 2x (1600mV) swing levels.
  • Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) tolerant.
  • Integrated resistive termination and receive AC coupling.
  • Hot-plug capable.

DIAGNOSTICS

  • Extensive control of loopbacks and diagnostic collection using in-band Register FIS.
  • CJTPAT data generator per link.
  • Extensive per-channel built-in counters including
  • CRC errors
  • Invalid DWORDs, Loss of DWORD synchronization
  • 8B/10B disparity errors and code violations
  • PHY Resets
  • Protocol timers for host/device protocol lockup issues.
  • PHYSICAL

    • 1.8 V power supply.
    • 80-pin Exposed Pad TQFP package.
    • 10 mm x 10 mm.

    Applications
