PLX assumes no responsibility for damage or loss resulting from the use of this manual, for loss or claims by third parties, which may arise through the use of the PEX 8114RDK-R, or for any damage or loss caused by deletion of data as a result of malfunction or repair.
Host system slot, by way of a standard PCI/PCI-X board edge connector (the PEX 8114RDK-R is designed to plug into a PCI or PCI-X motherboard slot). In Reverse Bridge mode, the secondary side of the PEX 8114 bridge device is the PCI Express downstream port.
PEX 8114 Features Supports Reverse and Forward Bridging Note: The PEX 8114RDK-R is for Reverse Bridge mode designs. For Forward Bridge mode designs, refer to the PEX 8114RDK-F. Single PCI Express port capable of x4, x2, or x1 link width Single PCI-X Bus segment supporting PCI-X protocol at 64-bit/133 MHz and/or PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 3.0...
PCI Express board can be inserted. Only the first four lanes of the slot are routed to the PEX 8114, and each lane is capable of up to 2.5 Gbps. The PEX 8114RDK-R appears to the Host as a PCI-to-PCI bridge.
Hardware Architecture There are several subsystems on the PEX 8114RDK-R. Among them are a power system that powers the PEX 8114, a Hot Plug circuit for the PCI Express straddle-mount slot connector, a Reference Clock generator, and controls and indicators. The following sections describe each PEX 8114RDK-R subsystem.
Strapping Switches The PEX 8114RDK-R has two DIP switches – SW3 and SW5 – that are used to control various PEX 8114RDK-R configurations. 3.4.1 Switch SW3 – PCIXCAP Control Switch SW3 has two switches, which determine the PCI/PCI-X board edge connector PCIXCAP pin value.
3.5.2 PERST# PERST# to the PCI Express straddle-mount slot connector (J5) is directly controlled by the PEX 8114 Hot Plug interface. PERST# to the PEX 8114 is controlled by the PEX 8114RDK-R Power Good indicator (DS10). 3.5.3 Lane Status LED Indicators Four green surface-mount LEDs (DS6, DS7, DS8, and DS9) are attached to the four PEX 8114 PEX_LANE_GOOD[3:0]# balls, respectively, to indicate lane status.
Mechanical Addendum to the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.0a. The interface can operate in a PCI/PCI-X 64-bit slot, but only at +3.3V. The interface operates at up to PCI-X 133 MHz. The interface also provides the PEX 8114RDK-R with power, as well as +3.3 VDC to the PCI Express straddle-mount slot connector.
3.7.3 PCI Express Power The PEX 8114RDK-R, as per the PCI Express Base Specification, Revision 1.0a, must provide +3.3V and 12V power to the PCI Express female straddle-mount slot connector. An on-board Hot Plug power switch, controlled by the PEX 8114, turns the slot connector power On/Off. +3.3 VDC is provided by the PCI/PCI- X board edge connector.
Mechanical Architecture Monitoring Point, LED Indicator, and Control Summary This section summarizes the PEX 8114RDK-R interfaces that are used for monitoring, indicating, and controlling PEX 8114 performance. 4.1.1 Monitoring Points Table 1. PEX 8114RDK-R Monitoring Points Footprint/ Silkscreen Function Label C27, plus side Monitors +3.3 VDC on the PCI Express straddle-mount slot connector, J5.
4.2.3 PCB Layer Stackup The PEX 8114RDK-R is a 12-layer, 63-mil thick PCB, as illustrated in Figure 7. The target signal impedance for all routing layers is 57 Ohm ±5% single-ended impedance and 100 Ohm ±5% differential. This PCB stackup was chosen for the following reasons:...
