PCI 9030

SMARTarget

As PCI evolves in today's complex systems, PLX continues to provide market

leading, high performance 32-bit PCI solutions. In this tradition, PLX is offering

the PCI 9030 SMARTarget I/O Accelerator.

There are many ways to do a PCI target design. Many PCI chip and core

designs only attempt to implement the minimum PCI v2.1 bus interface signaling

and call it complete. This leaves the burden of connectivity, performance and

system compatibility on the designer. Only the PCI 9030 has SMARTarget tech-

nology, a set of advanced features which go far beyond the minimum to pro-

vide the best possible performance and flexibility to simplify the design. A basic

target design is one thing, but a SMARTarget design is much more.

The PCI 9030 brings PLX's industry leading experience in the world of PCI

designs to you in a way that is simple and convenient to use. The PCI 9030 is

the perfect solution for applications such as:

Migrating Legacy Designs to PCI

Whether you are migrating an ISA or other older design to PCI, or upgrading

your current PCI target design, the PCI 9030 with SMARTarget technology pro-

vides the fastest and easiest route to PCI. The PCI 9030 has the industry's most

flexible local bus which allows for multiple interface options to a wide variety

of memory and I/O devices. Combine that with fully tested, compatible PCI v2.2

compliance, and your design risk is virtually zero.

CompactPCI Hot Swap Designs

Building upon PLX's experience in CompactPCI, the PCI 9030 is the industry's

first CompactPCI Hot Swap Ready Target device. This allows all of your

CompactPCI I/O board designs to be compatible with both traditional

CompactPCI and the new Hot Swap system designs.

Smaller Form Factor Designs

The PCI 9030 offers a 180-pin BGA packaging option. Where space is a consid-

eration, this ultra-thin, dime-sized package is an ideal solution. This allows for

flexibility in real estate sensitive designs such as PMC or PC-MIP Mezzanine

cards, and PCMCIA PC-Cards.
