IEEE-1394 PCI OHCI single chip Host Adapter Board
Unibrain’s FireBoard Blue™ Host Adapter brings high-performance IEEE-1394 technology to PCI systems. Based on the Texas Instruments TSB43AB23 device, an integrated 1394a-2000 OHCI PHY/link-layer controller, provides high performance serial connectivity. The TSB43AB23 is capable of transferring data between the 33-MHz PCI bus and the 1394 bus at 100Mbits/sec, 200Mbits/sec, and 400Mbits/sec. FireBoard Blue™ provides three 1394 ports that have separate cable bias (TPBIAS) and PCI bus master bursting, capable of transferring a cache line of data at 132Mbytes/sec after connection to the memory controller. Because PCI latency can be large, deep FIFOs are provided to buffer the 1394 data.

PCB Design
The FireBoard Blue™ card is a four-layer printed circuit PCI board. Two of the layers provide the signal interconnections (signal layers) while the remaining two layers provide the required power and ground interconnections (plane layers).
Performance Networking
The FireBoard Blue™ card has excellent performance as a network card used with Unibrain’s FireNet™ application.
Extensive tests have been performed using workstation PCs equipped with Pentium4 at 1,7GHz, with 256MB SDRAM, ASUS P4B 266-C motherboard and Western Digital 40GB HDs. TCP/IP protocol was used for the network interconnection of the PCs.
All the benchmarks were conducted in a Windows 2000 environment.
Two kinds of tests were performed :
Drivers Unibrain Network & Wireless Cards Online
- The first group of tests consisted of various real-time file copies between two computers. These tests demonstrated the real-life performance that a user can expect from the FireBoard Blue™ and FireNet™
- The other group of tests used network benchmark utilities (netio), which measure true network throughput without using the HDD

The results were as follows :
- Data transfer of real time copying of big files :
- Read : (reading a big file from an other PC) : 20M bytes/sec
- Write : (writing a big file to an other PC) : 21,5M bytes/sec
- netio: Two PCs in a point-to-point connection while netio[1] benchmark run in both machines. Netio networking benchmark for various file packet sizes:
Packet Size | Network Throughput (bytes/sec) |
