SATA Device IP Core (1.5, 3.0, 6.0 Gbps)
Overview
The Serial ATA Device Controller IP Core provides an interface to high-speed serial link replacements for the parallel ATA attachment of mass storage devices. The serial link employed is a high-speed differential layer that utilizes Gigabit technology and 8b/10b encoding.
Key Features
- 10, 20 and 40 bit Phy interface
- Connects to SAPIS compliant serial ATA Phy
- Fully compliant to SATA Gen 1 (1.5 Gbps), Gen 2 (3.0 Gbps) and Gen 3 (6.0 Gbps)
- Wishbone slave interface for register access and FIFO/DMA data transfers
- Only very few FF's in the Phy clock domain, main part on the Wishbone clock
- 128 byte (32 double word) data FIFO (optional 256 byte)
- Parallel ATA legacy software compatibility
- Implements the Task File, the non-standard serial ATA status and control registers, specific device registers and native mode registers
- interrupt and DMA handshake (external DMA)
- 48-bit address feature set supported
- 8b/10b coding and decoding
- CONT and data scramblers to reduce EMI
- CRC generation and checking
- Auto inserted HOLD primitives
- Power management support (partial and slumber)
- Optional native mode programming model
- Many configuration options
