Introduction
The FW-PCIE01 is a 2-port FireWire (IEEE 1394a) to PCI Express Host Adapter featuring Texas Instruments XIO2200 controller.

The Texas Instruments XIO2200 is a single-function PCI Express to PCI local bus translation bridge where the PCI bus interface is internally connected to a 1394a-2000 open host controller link-layer controller with a two-port 1394a PHY. This solution provides full PCI Express and 1394a functionality and performance.
