AVAGO is a supplier that combines design, development and supply of various analog semiconductor devices to customers worldwide. The company has more than 5,500 series products, including but not limited to opto-couplers, optical communication devices, motion control encoders and other products, providing quality services for industrial, automotive and wireless/wired communication fields. After years of development, AVAGO has a team of more than 2,000 highly qualified product engineers.
Compared to other PCI interface ICs, the PEX8724-CA80BCG supports a "multi-host" configuration mode that allows users to connect multiple hosts to their respective terminals. In addition, each port of the PEX8724-CA80BCG is equipped with a hot-swap control/status register. The hot-swap feature allows users to replace hardware without powering down, making it suitable for high-availability applications.
The MC56F8356VFVE is specified to operate from 0°C to 70°C and should ensure that the maximum and minimum temperatures for the application in question are within this range. The low power capability of the MC56F8356VFVE meets the PCle power management specification. The device is more widely used in the three areas of switches and acquisition storage and acquisition transmission.
What does each ellipse represent when the MC56F8356VFVE is in multi-homed mode?
Indicates a virtual switch inside the device.
What is the maximum number of host ports the MC56F8356VFVE can have?
4
How many bytes of packets does the MC56F8356VFVE support?
