General Description
The VSC7122 is a Quad Port Bypass Circuit (PBC). Four Fibre Channel PBC’s are cascaded into a single
part to minimize part count, cost, high frequency routing, and jitter accumulation. Port Bypass Circuits are used
to provide resiliency in Fibre Channel Arbitrated Loop (FC-AL) architectures. PBC’s are used within FC-AL
disk arrays to allow for resiliency and hot swapping of FC-AL drives.
A Port Bypass Circuit is a 2:1 Multiplexer with two modes of operation: NORMAL and BYPASS. In NOR-
MAL mode, the disk drive is connected to the loop. Data goes from the 7122’s L_SOn pin to the Disk Drive RX
input and data from the disk drive TX output goes to the 7122’s L_SIn pin. Refer to Figure 2 for disk drive
application. In BYPASS mode, the disk drive is either absent or non-functional and data bypasses to the next
available disk drive. Normal mode is enabled with a HIGH on the SEL pin and BYPASS mode is enabled by a
LOW on the SEL pin. Direct Attach Fibre Channel Disk Drives have an “LRC Interlock” signal defined to con-
trol the SEL function.
Using a VSC7122 in a single loop of a disk array is illustrated in Figure 2: “Disk Array Application”. FC-
AL drives are all expected to be dual loop. The VSC7122 is cascaded in a manner such that all the 7122’s inter-
nal PBC’s are used in the same loop. For dual loop implementations, two or more VSC7122’s should be used.
Allocating each VSC7122 to only one of two loops preserves redundancy, prevents a single point of failure and
lends itself to on-line maintainability.
The VSC7122 is very similar to the VSC7121 except that LSO+ outputs are all full power outputs identical
to OUT. This is useful in passive backplanes to provide additional amplitude on long traces.

VSC7122
The VSC7122 can be cascaded through the IN and OUT pins for arrays of disk drives greater than 4. For
disk arrays with a noninteger multiple of 4 disk drives, the unused PBC’s can be hardwired to bypass with a
external pulldown resistor.
Table 1 is a truth table detailing the data flow through the VSC7122. Figure 1 shows a timing diagram of the
data relationship in the VSC7122. There are no critical timing (setup, hold, or delay) parameters for the
VSC7122 as this part routes the serial data encoded with the baud clock that is extracted by a Fibre Channel
receiver. The primary AC parameter of importance is the jitter or data eye degradation inserted by the port
bypass circuit. The design of the VSC7122 minimizes jitter accummulation by using fully differential circuits.
This provides for symmetric rise and fall delays as well as noise rejection.
