Abstract
A bridge circuit includes an NVMe device controller, a network subsystem, and a data transfer circuit. The NVMe device controller is arranged to communicate with a host via a PCIe bus. The network subsystem is arranged to communicate with an NVMe-TCP device via a network. The data transfer circuit is coupled between the NVMe device controller and the network subsystem, and is arranged to deal with data transfer associated with the NVMe-TCP device without intervention of the host.
