Data Center Solutions 6 Gbps SAS/SATA Protocol Controller Family for Storage Systems 16/8-Port SPCve, 16/8-Port SPCv Summary Microchip s SPCve and SPCv are a highly-integrated 6G SAS/SATA 1.5G/3G/6G Protocol Controller family optimized for fabric-attached RAID storage system applications and native SAS/SATA HBA applications. SPCve features StorClad encryption technology, which provides a high-performance, manageable and scalable controller-based encryption solution. The 6 Gbps Protocol Controller family provides an efficient and scalable architecture that eliminates the system performance limitations of competing SAS controller devices. It provides application programming environments that are compatible with other members of the Tachyon SAS/SATA controller family and Tachyon Fibre Channel controllers, and it can easily be ported to address specific customer environments. These controllers provide you with end-to-end diagnostics and error handling mechanisms to increase system performance, avail- ability and most importantly, manageability. Unique end-to-end features and algorithms can be achieved from host to hard disk drive by using the SPCv 6G or SPCve 6G in combination with Microchip s market-leading SAS/SATA expanders, multiplexers and enclosure management solutions.
