Silicon Image’s SiI 0680 is a standalone Ultra ATA/133 host
controller designed to accommodate the transfer of large
amounts of content-rich data common in today’s multimedia
applications. The SiI 0680 provides OEMs with a fast,new
interface incorporating the latest advancements in hard disk technology.
Based on the Ultra ATA/133 interface specification,the SiI 0680 supports a
133 MB/s burst transfer rate and features 48-bit sector addressing,thereby
enabling the utilization of drives with capacities greater than 137 GB.
The SiI 0680 is a single-chip solution for designs based on chipsets without
an integrated ATA host controller,or those requiring a greater number of
ATA channels to accommodate the growing number of storage peripherals
with an ATA interface. By simply adding a card with the SiI 0680 and load-
ing the accompanying driver,any system with a PCI bus interface may
upgrade to the Ultra ATA/133 interface.
The SiI 0680 enables PC manufacturers to support as many as four drives
and incorporate the newest drive standards—all at a lower cost. With
the SiI 0680,other manufacturers,such as motherboard,add-in card and
embedded application companies,can incorporate a cost-effective,hard
disk drive solution without sacrificing performance or flexibility.
For enhanced performance ,the SiI 0680 can be packaged with Silicon
Image’s robust MedleyTM ATA Software RAID,which optimizes throughput
and data redundancy. Supporting RAID sets of up to four hard disk
drives,Medley enables RAID 0 Striping,RAID 1 Mirroring and RAID 0+1
Mirrored Striping.
