A single application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) die is capable of supporting a plurality of different interfaces. The ASIC die includes elements that are common to the different interfaces, elements that are unique to each of the different interfaces, and a plurality of switches. A controller in the ASIC die is adapted to control the switches such that the common elements are used regardless of which of the different interfaces is being used, and a subset of the unique elements are used based on which of the interfaces is being used. The different interfaces can include, for example, serial ATA, Fibre Channel, and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.
