OXU3100, USB SuperSpeed 3.0 to SATA Controller Highlights General Features o USB SuperSpeed 3.0 to SATA storage controller Key Features o USB 3.0 to SATA storage controller o Integrated USB 3.0 / USB 2.0 PHY o Integrated SATA II compliant core and PHY - Supports 3.0Gbps and 1.5Gbps interfaces o Support for UAS/UASP (USB attached SCSI Protocol) delivering maximum throughput o Support for BOT (Bulk only Transport) o Support for USB Mass Storage Class o SPI interface for serial flash o Secondary SPI for simple interface to external system components such as LCD display o 9 GPIOs allow easy product customization o In-field update of firmware via USB o 3.3V supply voltage - Internal regulator for core voltage The OXU3100 is a low power storage controller bridging between USB SuperSpeed 3.0 and a SATA hard disk. Fully compliant with the USB 3.0 Specification, the OXU3100 is optimized for bus-powered applications and supports a number of power saving modes, including SATA Interface Power Management (IPM), which allows additional power saving when connected to an HDD that also supports IPM. The OXU3100 is a highly integrated device and requires a minimum number of external components. Embedded in the device are a USB 3.0 / 2.0 PHY and device controller, SATA II PHY, internal voltage regulator and Pulse Width Modulators (PWMs) for LED control. The OXU3100 requires only a single external crystal. The OXU3100 is supported by a comprehensive support package that includes evaluation boards, reference designs, and software development kit. USB SuperSpeed 3.0 The embedded USB 3.0 PHY supports SuperSpeed, High Speed and Full Speed modes, using either bulk-only transport Mass Storage Class device protocol or the new USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP). Its fast read and write transfers ensure that the maximum possible host performance is maintained. SATA Interface The embedded 3GHz SATA host interfaces supports the latest revisions of the SATA II specifications. Interface speeds of 3GHz and 1.5GHz deliver maximum performance with minimum latency for external SATA storage. Power Management The OXU3100 provides OEMs with a range of power saving modes to ensure minimal power consumption in all configurations, including: o USB 3.0 U0 – U3 power states o USB 2.0 standby / suspend states o SATA Interface Power Management (IPM) © PLX Technology, www.plxtech.com Page 1 of 2 6/18/2010, Version 2.0 OXU3100, USB SuperSpeed 3.0 to SATA Controller Embedded Processor Development Support The on-chip RISC processor enables a whole new series of standalone consumer electronic product to be developed in a simple C programming environment.
