Datasheet Summary
PMC-Sierra,Inc.
- Each chip supports the EXACT Bus Protocol, which is a 10-bit, unidirectional insertion ring running at 125 MHz or 135 MHz.
- EXACT Bus ports allow simple box-tobox, card-to-card, or chip-to-chip interconnect.
- 8B/10B EXACT Bus encoding is patible with mon Serialization (SERDES) devices to allow serial extension using coax or twinax cable.
- Management interface connects to an off-chip microprocessor for access to internal control registers.
