The ExpressLane
capability enabling users to add scalable high bandwidth, non-blocking
interconnection to a wide variety of applications including
workstations, storage systems, communications platforms,
embedded systems, and intelligent I/O modules. The PEX 8616 is
well suited for fan-out, aggregation, and peer-to-peer applications.
High Performance & Low Packet Latency
The PEX 8616 architecture supports packet cut-thru with a maximum
latency of 150ns (x4 to x4). This, combined with large packet memory and
non-blocking internal switch architecture, provides full line rate on all ports
for performance-hungry applications such as servers and switch fabrics.
The low latency enables applications to achieve high throughput and
performance. In addition to low latency, the device supports a max payload
size of 2048 bytes, enabling the user to achieve even higher throughput.
Data Integrity
The PEX 8616 provides end-to-end CRC (ECRC) protection and Poison bit
support to enable designs that require end-to-end data integrity. PLX also
supports data path parity and memory (RAM) error correction as packets
pass through the switch.
Flexible Register & Port Configuration
x8. Flexible buffer allocation, along with the device's flexible packet flow
control, maximizes throughput for applications where more traffic flows in
the downstream, rather than upstream, direction. Any port can be designated
as the upstream port, which can be changed dynamically. The PEX 8616 also
provides several ways to
configure its registers.
The device can be
configured through
strapping pins, I
interface, host software,
or an optional serial
EEPROM. This allows for
easy debug during the
development phase,
performance monitoring
during the operation
phase, and driver or
software upgrade. Figure
1 shows some of the PEX
8616’s common port
configurations.
The PEX 8616’s 4 ports can be configured to lane widths of x1, x2, x4, or
PCIe Gen2, 5.0GT/s 16-lane, 4-port Switch
