Understanding 40-nm FPGA Solutions for SATA/SAS

by Kevin Morris

This white paper describes the SATA and SAS protocols, how the protocols are used, explains the value SATA and SAS in terms of usage in an FPGA, and illustrates how Altera FPGAs can be used to develop a SATA or SAS solution. SATA and SAS are computer bus standards that have the primary function of transferring data (directly or otherwise) between the motherboard and mass storage devices (such as hard disk drives, optical drives, and solid-state disks) inside and outside the computer.
