The on-board regulators provide power to the board’s 3.3 V devices.

Note: The PCI +3.3 V pins are tied together and decoupled with

high frequency bypass capacitors to ground. No current from these +3.3 V pins is used on the board. The board derives power from the +5 V pins, directly and through a

3.3 V voltage regulator. The PCI +3 V/+5 V pins are used to differentiate between a 5 V or a 3.3 V PCI signaling environment.

2.6.1 LSI40919O Host Adapter Conﬁguration

The LSI Logic LSI40919O is a single-channel 2 Gbit/s Fibre Channel adapter. One LC optical connector is used for I/O, which is accessible through the module bracket.The LSI40919O uses one LSIFC919 device, providing one Fusion-MPT channel.

The LSI40919O is a PCI low-proﬁle short card with standard height bracket; the dimensions are 6.6 x 2.53 inches. J1 is the PCI edge connector. The external FC connection is made through a 2 Gbit/s SFF (Small Form Factor) optical module.

The component height on the top and bottom of the board conforms to the PCI Local Bus Speciﬁcation, Revision 2.2. Figure 2.1 illustrates the components on the LSI40919O.
