Typical Applications

The Tsi384 is suited to applications that need to bridge from PCIe to

downstream PCI-X and PCI devices. Its flexibility, high performance,

small footprint, and low power consumption, make it ideal for a wide

range of applications, including:

• Storage Area Network (SAN, RAID HBA cards)

• Network Attached Storage, Direct Attached Storage (NAS, DAS)

• Line cards and NICs

• Routers and switches

• Motherboards (server, SBC, industrial PC)

• PC adapter cards (communications, graphics, imaging, and

multimedia)

• Multi-function printers

• Digital video recorders
