Fibre Channel Encoder/Decoder
Features
Compliant with ANSI X3T11 Fibre Channel Standard Full implementation of Fibre Channel’s FC-1 layer Interfaces directly with TriQuint’s GA9101/GA9102 and TQ9501/TQ9502 FC-0 Fibre Channel chipsets Suitable for proprietary serial links (virtual ribbon cable) Implements 8b/10b encoding and decoding Implements ordered set encoding and decoding Checks and generates 32-bit CRC and parity 10-bit TTL-compatible interface to Transmitter and Receiver 32-bit interface to the host Fully synchronous operation 160-pin PQFP

The TQ9303 ENDEC (ENcoder/DECoder) implements 8b/10b encoding and decoding, ordered set encoding and decoding, and parity checking and generation as defined in the Fibre Channel Physical Signaling Interface Standard (FC-PH). The ENDEC fully implements the FC-1 layer of the Fibre Channel Standard. Implemented in a 0.8-micron
CMOS process, the ENDEC also performs 32-bit CRC checking and generation as defined in the FC-2 layer of the Fibre Channel specification. The TQ9303 ENDEC interfaces directly to TriQuint’s FC-0 layer Fibre Channel Transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx) chipsets at the speeds shown be...
