1394 Products
LSI offers a complete family of 1394 products for PC mainboards, PCI add-in cards, consumer electronics, and peripheral applications. Our TrueFIRETM portfolio of products support both 1394a-2000 and 1394-1995 specifications with support for 100, 200, and 400 Mbits/s operation. Additionally, LSI offers 1394B products that operate at 800Mbits/s. From integrated solutions to discrete PHYs, our solutions offer a powerful combination of features including small form factor, low power dissipation, broad interoperability, compatibility, and low EMI profile.
1394 Product Overview
It's all about bandwidth. Driven by rapid speed requirements of computers and the adoption of digital consumer electronics, users want to do more like video editing, sending pictures to friends and relatives, and downloading real-time video and audio. We need faster connections between our PCs, cameras, peripherals, and other consumer electronics that will make all this possible. That's what 1394 provides: high-speed, low-cost ports on computers, peripherals, and consumer electronics.
FW 322/323
The LSI FW322 and FW323 are high-performance PCI bus-based open host controllers for implementations of IEEE 1394a compliant systems or devices.
FW321
The FW321 are high-performance PCI bus-based open host controller for implementation of IEEE 1394a compliant system or device. A
high-performance and cost-effective solution for connection and servicing multiple IEEE 1394 (1394-1995, 1394a, and 1394b) peripheral devices can be realized. This device is offered in a 129-ball VTFSBGA package as well.
FW420
The FW420 is the LSI implementation of a high performance, PCI bus-based open host controller for implementation of IEEE® 1394b compliant systems and devices.
FW430
The LSI FW430 is a high-performance PCI bus-based open host controller for implementation of IEEE 1394a or 1394b compliant systems and devices.
FW533
The LSI FW533 is specifically designed for PCI Express. It combines an OHCI (open host controller interface) with TrueFIRE technology and a high-performance, standards-compliant PCI Express 1.0a host system interface in a small footprint and with low power dissipation.
FW643
The LSI FW643 product is the industry's first single-chip solution integrating PCI Express bus and 1394B functions. The FW643 enables smaller, more innovative, and cost-effective main-board designs due to the superior routing capability of PCI Express.
FW801A/BF
The LSI FW801 devices provide the analog physical layer functions needed to implement a one-port node in a cable-based IEEE 1394-1995 and IEEE 1394a-2000 network.
FW802B/BF/C
The LSI FW802 devices provide the analog physical layer functions needed to implement a two-port node in a cablebased IEEE 1394-1995 and IEEE 1394a-2000 network.
FW843
The FW843 provides the digital and analog functions needed to implement a three-port node in a cable-based IEEE 1394 network.
