FWB-IDE01A Overview
Connectors:
2). Bridge Board:
FWB-IDE01A is ideally suited for tailgate interface applications
for removable-media drives CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM,
DVD-RAM, tape drive, and hard disk drive.
It allows IDE drives (Master and Slave)to be connected to
FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b) serial bus in a plug-and-play fashion.
Both ATA and ATAPI devices are supported using the same firmware.
FWB-IDE01A allows users to easily hot-swap IDE drive without
interrupting the current operation.
FWB-IDE01A provides the perfect solution for data backup and
transfering of data between computers using IDE (ATA/ATAPI)
devices.

- PIO Mode 0-4
- DMA Mode 0-2
- Ultra DMA Mode 2, 4, 5, 6
- Supports 48-bit addressing for large hard drives (>128GB).
IEEE 1394a Bus Transfer Rate:
100/200/400 Mbps
IEEE 1394b Bus Transfer Rate:
100/200/400/800 Mbps

IEEE 1394 Special Features:
FWB-IDE01A was designed to have SCSI 1 50pin connector form
factor so it's idea for SCSI case.
1394 Repeater Function: Yes!
The PHY (TSB81BA3) can be powered by IEEE 1394 bus power
to act as a repeater.
IEEE 1394 Bus Power:
It might take the power from the IEEE 1394 Bus for the PHY
(TSB81BA3) and will provide DC 11.5V bus power to the
IEEE 1394 Bus.
