Supports Forward and Reverse Bridging, allowing systems to migrate to PCI Express and leverage software compatibility Note: The PEX 8112 Fwd Riser is for Forward Mode designs. For Reverse Mode designs, refer to the PEX 8112 Rev Riser. Integrated PCI Express interface with x1 link, dual-simplex 2.5 Gbps SerDes...
The PEX 8112 Fwd Riser’s form factor is based on the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 3.0. The PCI interface supports up to 32-bit transfers, at up to 66 MHz. The PEX 8112 Fwd Riser has one PCI slot (female) connector (straddle mount).
PCI Interface This PEX 8112 Fwd Riser has one female PCI slot, which connects to the PEX 8112’s PCI bus. Connector J3 is a straddle-mount (SMT) connector that has its own REQ#/GNT# pair, which can be arbitrated by the PEX 8112.
PEX 8112 Fwd Riser Power The PEX 8112 Fwd Riser has two sources for DC power. The first source is the card edge connector (J1). This x1 connector provides up to 500 mA at +12V, and 3.0A at +3.3V. Card edge power is intended to power only PEX 8112 Fwd Riser components, as well as optional PCI connector (J3).
