Delivering best-in-class performance across all interfaces, the OXUFS936DSE enables a range of external secure storage applications, including dual disk RAID configurations. The integrated hardware RAID controller supports maximum performance (RAID 0), maximum data protection (RAID 1) or spanning over USB, 1394 and eSATA. The integrated cipher engine provides advanced encryption and decryption capabilities in hardware and enables OEMs to rapidly deploy full disk encryption solutions, providing end users with peace-of-mind that their private content is safe and secure in the event of theft or loss. Integrating an eSATA device port, IEEE1394b link, USB2.0 device and dual SATA host controllers the OXUFS936DSE requires a minimal number of external components and reduces total system BOM cost. Embedded ARM Processor By managing the data flow, the on-chip ARM7 processor enables a whole new series of standalone consumer electronic product to be developed in a simple C/C++ programming environment. USB2.0 The embedded USB2.0 PHY supports both full and high speed, using bulk-only transport Mass Storage Class device protocol. Its fast read and write transfers ensure that the maximum possible host performance is maintained. No additional USB host drivers are required, for either Windows® or Mac® operating systems, for standard storage, button notification or GPIO control applications FireWire The 1394 link layer supports both FireWire800 and FireWire400 and complies with the 1394-1995 and 1394-2000 specifications. No additional 1394 host drivers are required, for either Windows® or Mac® operating systems for standard storage applications. SATA Interface The embedded 3GHz SATA host interfaces supports the latest revisions of the SATA II specifications. In addition the eSATA device port also supports the Gen2m interface. Interface speeds of 3GHz and 1.5GHz deliver maximum performance with minimum latency for external SATA storage. © PLX Technology, www.plxtech.com Page 1 of 1 4/8/2009, Version 1.0 OXUF936DSE, Universal Interface to Dual SATA RAID Controller with Encryption RAID Product Ordering Information The chip supports several RAID functions, including: Part Number OXUF936DSEFBAG o Striping (RAID 0) delivers the highest performance but provides no data integrity or redundancy. o Mirroring (RAID 1) provides the highest level of data integrity with 100% data redundancy. o Spanning (concatenation) presents all drives as a single large volume.
