Device Overview
The Tsi620 provides the functionality of both a serial RapidIO Switch and a
RapidIO-to-PCI bridge. The RapidIO Switch offers 50 Gbps aggregate
bandwidth, while the RapidIO-to-PCI bridge enables legacy systems to link to
the high-bandwidth RapidIO interconnect. The Tsi620 contains all the
benefits of IDT’s RapidIO switches, and adds interfaces to PCI-enabled
processors as well as to low-cost FPGAs.
Up to three RapidIO Ports (4x/1x Mode), or
Up to six RapidIO Ports (1x Mode)

Multiple Interfaces
The PCI Interface enables system OEMs to select from a range of processor
options to optimize their designs from a cost and software perspective. The
Tsi620 allows designers to maintain their investment in existing PCI
infrastructure while accessing the bandwidth capabilities of RapidIO.
The FPGA Interface supports a single, 4x/1x RapidIO port. It is a parallel
interface that connects to low-cost FPGAs without the need for an XAUIenabled SerDes (Serializer/Deserializer), and has flexible test features
including multiple loopback modes.

The Tsi620 allows designers to maintain
their investment in existing PCI
infrastructure while accessing the
bandwidth capabilities of RapidIO.
The RapidIO Advantage
The Tsi620 builds on the RapidIO features of IDT’s RapidIO switches. It has
low power per port, multicasting, traffic management through scheduling
algorithms, programmable buffer depth, and fabric performance monitoring.
Embedded applications further benefit from the ability to route packets to
thousands of endpoints through hierarchical lookup tables, and independent
unicast and multicast routing mechanisms. Support for error management
extensions provide proactive issue notification to the device’s Switch ISF. In
addition, the Tsi620 supports both in-band serial RapidIO access and out-ofband access to its registers through the I2C Interface.
Typical Applications
3G Wireless Baseband
In 3G wireless applications, the architecture is usually divided between chip
rate processing in the FPGA, and symbol rate processing in the DSPs. The
overall cost of a baseband line card, however, can be reduced by using a
Tsi620 to cluster the FPGA, Control Plane Processor, and Symbol Rate DSPs.
Because of the Tsi620’s SerDes and PCI features, the baseband application
can use a low-cost FPGA (without an embedded SerDes) and a processor
with a PCI interface (instead of using RapidIO-enabled processors), allowing
the reuse of existing software investments. The PCI interface can also
connect legacy ASICs directly to a cloud of RapidIO-based multicore DSPs,
which previously was not possible using RapidIO switches.

Benefits
DSP
• Decreases system costs: RapidIO over
XGMII FPGA Interface eliminates the
need for an external SerDes or FPGA
with embedded SerDes, and reduces
latency by up to 300 ns in real-time
applications
• Maintains system investment: Allows use
of existing PCI infrastructure with the
higher bandwidth RapidIO
• Builds on proven technology: The Tsi620
is based on IDT’s Tsi57x RapidIO switches
