A ccording to the requirements for fiber channel pro tocol processing, the functions of the software and the hardwarewere determined, and the design and implement of the firmware and hardware were elaborated. In the adapter, codesign model for hard ware and software was used; the functions of FC0, FC1 and the part of FC2 in fiber channel protocol were implemented by the hardware and the functions of FC2, FCP( fiber channel protocol for SCSI) , the login and discovery and resource management by the firmware. The intercommunications among the modules were carried out through memory queues. T he event management module was used to collect all events centrally and process them in time. It was seen that the system works correctly through the test connecting with a commercial fiber channel adapter. Key words: fiber channel; adapter; field programmable gate array ( FPGA) [ 2] .
