(ASIC). The custom ASIC implements a very high performance, multi-
class, multi-protocol fibre channel host adapter with a 64-bit PCI bus
connection in a single chip.

Supports a full-duplex fibre channel connection at full-link bandwidth
providing a total throughput of greater than 2 Gbits/sec.

Controlled by a 233 MHz, 32-bit Intel StrongARM RISC processor.
