PCI to USB 2.0 Hi-Speed Peripheral Controller
Simplified Hardware Design
PLX Technology’s NET2282 PCI to Hi-Speed USB 2.0 Peripheral Controller is
designed for easy integration with existing PCI based systems and silicon. While
there are many PCI-based USB hosts on the market, the NET2282 is one of the only
PCI-based USB peripheral controllers available. With the NET2282, adding a Hi-
Speed USB Device port is just a matter of connecting the PCI signals with the same
name together.
The PCI bus on the NET2282 can be either a PCI host or a PCI adapter. As a PCI
adapter, the NET2282 can fit into any standard PCI slot (3.3 or 5 Volts). This means
that any system with a PCI bus can instantly add a USB 2.0 peripheral port in
minutes. As the NET2282 is supported by several operating systems, additional
software modification can be minimized.
As a PCI host, the NET2282 can be used to convert existing PCI cards or CardBus
adapters to stand alone USB devices or ExpressCard adapters. Rather than relying
on a host PC’s PCI chipset, the NET2282 has all the resources, including emulated
main memory, to configure and bring up a PCI device. Furthermore, the Auto-
Enumeration Technology in the NET2282 allows the USB device to be enumerated
by a USB host without any interaction on the PCI side.
Tuned for Performance
The NET2282 is designed for high performance transfers, with its USB port able to
match the bandwidth of most PCI chips.
Four mastering,
descriptor
based DMA
controllers,
along with the
NET2282’s true
FIFO structure,
allow it to
sustain transfers
of up to 40
MBytes/sec.
Even at these
speeds, and the
full PCI bus
running, the
low power
consumption of
the NET2282
allows for its
use in USB
bus-powered
devices.
