A detailed description of this earthquake can be found at http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/us2010tfan.php
This earthquake happened on the plate boundary between the Nazca plate and the South American plate, where the Nazca plate subducts eastward underneath the South American plate. This is the same plate boundary that gives rise to the volcanoes that form the core of the Andes Mountains. The portion of the plate boundary that slipped in this earthquake was between the portion that slipped in a M 9.5 quake in 1960 (the largest earthquake ever recorded by modern instruments), and the portion of the fault that produced a M 8.5 earthquake in 1922. Both of those earthquakes produced tsunamis that affected Hawaii and other areas of the Pacific rim. For more information of these tsunamis and others, see http://www.tsunami.org/index.html.
