The Si
I
3611
SATALink Device Bridge
The SiI 3611 is a single-chip Serial ATA-to-Parallel ATA device bridge
solution. Combining the Transport, Link and PHY layers of Serial ATA
with a Parallel ATA interface, the SiI 3611 enables manufacturers to
take advantage of Serial ATA connectivity while using low-cost, widely
available Parallel ATA controllers. As a member of Silicon Image's
SATALink
TM
family of Serial ATA products, the SiI 3611 has undergone
extensive interoperability testing and offers the industry's most robust
device bridge solution available.
The SiI 3611 supports the Serial ATA Generation 1 transfer rate of 1.5
Gbps (150 MB/s) with its on-board serializer/deserializer and is
compatible with Ultra ATA/133. The SiI 3611 features a standard ATA
port that can interface to Parallel ATA devices such as hard disks and
CDROMs. It accepts Serial ATA commands from the host's Serial ATA
interface, decodes the commands and converts them to Parallel ATA
device commands. Through the Parallel ATA bus, responses from the
device are deciphered, processed, converted to Serial ATA protocol
and sent to the host.
The SiI 3611 leverages much of the circuit innovation at the physical
layer of Silicon Image's proprietary reduced overhead Multi-layer Serial
Link (MSL
TM
) architecture, pioneered and proven through the company's
market-leading PanelLink
®
products. MSL technology is a multi-layer
approach to providing robust, cost-effective, multi-gigabit semiconductor
solutions on a single chip for high-bandwidth applications.
