PCI 6540
Dual-Mode (Transparent & Non-Transparent) Universal
FastLane™ PCI-X –to- PCI-X Bridge
Adaptive High Performance Asynchronous 133MHz, 64-bit,
PCI-X –to– PCI-X Bridge for Servers, Storage, DSP, Telecommunication,
Networking and Embedded Applications
PLX’s FastLane™ PCI 6540 is a 64-Bit PCI-X-to-PCI-X bridge designed for high
performance, high availability applications in PCI-X-to-PCI conversion, frequency
conversions from a faster PCI-X to a slower PCI-X bus, address remapping, high
availability hot swap, and universal system-to-system bridging.
The FastLane™ PCI 6540 includes sophisticated buffer management and buffer
configuration options designed to provide customizable performance for efficient PCI-
X –to– PCI conversion and processor bridging. The PCI 6540 allows up to 2KB
prefetch during each PCI read and timed FIFO flush management.
