     Power is provided by the PCI-e card slot.  Power required by internal components of OSS-PCIe-HIB-38-x16 is estimated to be 15 watts when both ports are fully linked and operating in Gen3 mode.  Cable power is to be provided per PCIe cable specification. When an active cable (powered transceiver) is used, additional power is required from the PCI-e card slot.

    Note that the PEX8733’s upstream port is set to 8 by the mode 1 eeprom. The upstream system provides a copy of its SSC, and the on-board buffer provides a copy to the downstream target as well as the PEX8733’s core logic. OSS-PCIe-HIB38-x16| 9...
  • Page 10 One Stop Systems Mode 2: Host Mode. In this mode, the PCI-e cable is connected to a downstream (target) or the cable port of a Mode 0 OSS-PCIe- HIB-38-x16, while the card edge interface is installed in an upstream host system. The host system’s SSC is used to provide the PEX8733 core logic clock as well as the cable’s reference clock.
