Agilent HHBA-5101 64-bit Tachyon TL PCI-to-Fibre Channel Adapter Product Overview Features • Fibre Channel data transfer rates: – up to 100 MB/s (Half duplex) – up to 200 MB/s (Full duplex) Description The HHBA-5101 is a 64-bit PCI-to-Fibre Channel Adapter for mass storage applications that require FC-AL or Fabric, Class 3 and SCSI upper layer protocol handling. At the heart of these is the HPFC-5100 Tachyon TL Fibre Channel Interface Controller IC. The 1Gb/s Fibre Channel Adapters are powered by Agilent Tachyon controllers, based on a Finite State Machine (FSM) architecture. The FSM allows performance to scale seamlessly with increased server CPU power. By contrast, processor-based adapters are limited by the maximum performance of the processor itself. Software Driver Support Agilent offers a Tachyon Software Developer’s Kit (TSDK) for Windows NT® 4.0, Linux environments and VXWorks. Product Offering The HHBA-5101 is available in four configurations. The HHBA-5121x and HHBA-5121xP are single and bulk packaged adapters, respectively. In addition, there are two bulk package options which include an industry standard GBIC: HHBA-5121xP1 with an 850 nm optical GBIC or HHBA-5121xP2 with an HSSDC Copper GBIC. • Physical interface style – GBIC (optical or copper) for applications requiring reliability and flexibility • Supports Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) including Public Loop and Fabric (F- and FL-port login) • One or less PCI bus interrupt per SCSI I/O operation • 64-bit Universal PCI interface (2.1 compliant) Workstation and Server Applications • Storage Area Networks (SANs) • Data warehousing • Clustering • Remote back-up • Near on-line storage • Video editing & CAD Specifications Fibre Channel Operation Fibre Channel Data Rate Topology Class Upper Layer Protocol Loop Initialization Arbitrated Loop Capabilities Link Diagnostics Compliance 1 Gbit/sec, 100 MBytes/sec (half duplex), 200 Mbytes/sec (full duplex) Arbitrated Loop – Public and private, Fabric support (F- and FL-login) 3 SCSI FCP - On-chip automation of complete SCSI I/O Completely hardware-based for high availability Loop map, Loop directed reset, Loop broadcast Link Status indicators, internal/external loopback FC-PH, FC-AL, FC-PLDA, FCP-SCSI PCI Compliance Rate & Width Burst Transfer Rate Dual Address Cycle Support Hot Plug Support Additional PCI Features PCI Local Bus specification v2.1 33 MHz, 64/32-bit PCI 264 Mbytes/sec, guaranteed for length of frame, inbound & outbound at 64-bit, 33 MHz Yes (64-bit PCI addressing) Yes Zero wait state multiple cache line bursting capable up to full frame size, 32-byte cache line Tachyon TL Architectural Features Complete Hardware-based Design Numerous independent functional blocks concurrently processing inbound data, outbound data, control and commands in hardware Automation of complete I/O on-chip in hardware Results in lowest latency & I/O overhead and highest levels of parallelism Physical and Environmental PCB Size PCB Power Supply Voltage Operating Temperature Range Storage Temperature Range Relative Humidity Universal PCI short card 5W max, at 5V ± 5% 5V ± 5% 0° to 55° Centigrade (no airflow) -40° to 70° Centigrade up to 90% (non-condensing) Software Support Tachyon Software Developer’s Kit (TSDK) Windows NT 4.0 Linux Environments VXWorks Certifications FCC Class B CE VCCI ITE Class C-TICK (AZ/NZS 3548) US/FDA/CDRH Laser AEL Class I (21CFR) TÜV Rheinland Laser AEL Class 1 (EN60825-1+A11) Yes Yes www.agilent.com/semiconductors For product information and a complete list of distributors, please go to our web site.
