Product Overview

The TSI721A1‑16GILV is Renesas (formerly IDT) high‑performance bridge IC, implementing PCIe Gen2 to Serial RapidIO Gen2 protocol conversion. It delivers up to 16 Gbps full‑duplex low‑latency throughput with integrated BDMA engine. Widely deployed for wireless baseband, radar, medical imaging and aerospace embedded computing platforms to interconnect CPU, DSP and FPGA.

Core Advantages

High‑Speed Low‑Latency Bridging

Supports PCIe Gen2 and Serial RapidIO Gen2 multi‑lane operation, achieving 16 Gbps aggregate full‑duplex bandwidth for backplane data transmission.

Hardware BDMA Offload

Built‑in multi‑channel BDMA engine handles data transfer independently, reducing host CPU processing overhead.

Flexible Lane Support

Both interfaces work under x4 / x2 / x1 lane modes, adapting to diverse system bandwidth requirements.

Industrial Grade Stability

-40°C ~ +85°C operating temperature, well‑suited for VPX and AdvancedTCA high‑density embedded systems.
