1394 Serial Bus Devices
TSB12C01A
Product Description
The TSB12C01A is the first IEEE-1394 Link Layer Controller (LLC) produced by Texas Instruments. The TSB12C01A allows for easy integration into an I/O subsystem through it's generic 32-bit host bus interface, whcih makes connection to most 32-bit host buses very simple.
The TSB12C01A transmits and receives correctly formatted 1394 packets and generates and inspects the 32-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC). The TSB12C01A is capable of being cycle master and supports reception of isochronous data on two channels. It interfaces directly to TI physical layer devices such as the TSB11C01, TSB11LV01, and TSB21LV03A and can support bus speeds of 100, 200, and 400 Mbps.
The TSB12C01A has software adjustable FIFOs for optimal FIFO size and performance characterization and allows for variable-size asynchronous-transmit FIFO (ATF), Isochronous-transmit FIFO (ITF), and General-receive FIFO (GRF).
Target Applications
High Speed Peripheral Devices
The TSB12C01A provides a way to add 1394 connections to any high speed digital device.
