(R) Tsi384TM PCIe(R) to PCI/X Bridge Product Brief Device Overview The IDT Tsi384 is a high-performance bus bridge that connects the PCI Express (PCIe) protocol to the PCI and PCI-X bus standards. The Tsi384's PCIe Interface has superior performance and supports 1, 2, or 4 lanes. This enables the bridge to offer exceptional throughput performance of up to 1 GBps. The device's PCI/X Interface can operate up to 133 MHz in PCI-X mode, or up to 66 MHz in PCI mode. This interface offers designers extensive flexibility by supporting three types of addressing modes: transparent, opaque, and non-transparent. Low Power Consumption The Tsi384 has typical power consumption of 1.3W, and incorporates advanced power management to minimize power consumption during operation. In addition to supporting D0, D3 hot, and D3 cold power management modes, the device permits unused PCIe lanes to be powered off automatically or by configuration. Transparent, Non-transparent, and Opaque Bridging Transparent mode operation is available for efficient, flow-through configurations, while non-transparent bridging allows isolation between the Tsi384's PCIe and the PCI/X domains. Non-transparent bridging also enables multi-host systems and is used in applications such as storage adapters. Opaque mode provides semi-transparent operation for multiprocessor configurations and enhanced private device support. High Performance The Tsi384 incorporates many advanced PCIe protocols that increase system performance, including: Lane Reversal and Polarity Inversion, end-to-end CRC, ASPM L0 link state power management, and Hot Plug. In addition to low-latency operation, the device supports a maximum payload size of up to 512 bytes to allow better throughput efficiency.
