IntelliProp NVMe-to-SATA Bridge (IPP-NV186A-BR)
Block Diagram
Overview
The IntelliProp IPP-NV186A-BR is an NVMe-to-SATA Bridge that utilizes the IntelliProp NVMe Target IP Core and the IntelliProp SATA AHCI Host Core to create an NVMe-to-SATA protocol bridge. The bridge is architected such that the command submissions, completion notifications and data transmissions may be either passed through without interruption or intercepted for analysis or modification. The architecture implements a ”sandbox” area in the bridge so that IntelliProp customers may implement custom RTL and/or firmware in the bridge. The NVMe protocol interface is compliant to the NVM Express 1.3 specification and the SATA interface is compliant with the SATA 3.3 specification as defined by the Serial ATA International Organization (SATA-IO). Applications for the IPP-NV186A-BR include: High performance read/write caching ; LBA Remapping; Namespace manipulation; Data encryption/compression; Endpoint aggregation.
