PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The Tachyon QE4 device (HPFC-66xx Series) is a high-performance 4-
port 4 Gbit/s Fibre Channel controller. It features an 8-lane, native PCI
Express bus, enabling full-duplex operation. QE4 is an integrated single
chip solution ideal for a variety of high-performance I/O applications.
The Tachyon proven State-Machine architecture scales directly with
system CPU performance and is not limited by the constraints of an
embedded microprocessor. QE4 supports up to 4 processors per FC
link using 4 independent register and API queue structures. This
feature allows systems to scale to required performance as necessary
while maintaining compatibility with the Tachyon programming model
at the register level, and with the Tachyon Software Development Kit
(TSDK) API tools.
QE4 supports the T-10 Standard Protection Information via Advanced
Data Integrity Field (ADIF) which ensures end to end data
checking/integrity across the storage domain. ADIF provides robust
CRC-based data protection with mechanisms to initiate, extend, verify
and replace, or terminate a protection domain.
QE4 offers additional performance by providing advanced frame-
handling functions that are normally handled by the host processor.
These additional enhancements make it possible for the system to
utilize intelligent frame handling while reducing CPU utilization.
