The IPC-SS107A-DT is a fully compliant SAS 3.0 Target IP core designed to enable FPGAs to act as high-throughput storage devices. It features a complete implementation of the SAS protocol stack—including the PHY, Link, Port, and Transport layers—allowing for seamless integration into hot-swap HDD/SSD environments. The core is architected for extreme reliability and automation, featuring autonomous credit management and ACK/NAK transmission, which significantly reduces the real-time processing burden on the host system.
