DS50PCI401 2.5 Gbps / 5.0 Gbps 4 Lane PCI Express Transceiver with Equalization and De-Emphasis General Description Features The DS50PCI401 is a low power, 4 lane bidirectional buffer/ equalizer designed specifically for PCI Express Gen1 and Gen2 applications. The device performs both receive equalization and transmit de-emphasis, allowing maximum flexibility of physical placement within a system. The receiver is capable of opening an input eye that is completely closed due to inter-symbol interference (ISI) induced by the interconnect medium. The transmitter de-emphasis level can be set by the user depending on the distance from the DS50PCI401 to the PCI Express endpoint. The DS50PCI401 contains PCI Express specific functions such as Transmit Idle, RX Detection, and Beacon signal pass through. The device will change the load impedance on its input pins based on the state of RXDETA/B inputs detection. An internal rate detection circuit is included to detect if an incoming data stream is at Gen2 data rates, and adjusts the de-emphasis on it's output accordingly. The signal conditioning provided by the device allows systems to upgrade from Gen1 data rates to Gen2 without reducing their physical reach. This is true for FR4 applications such as backplanes, as well as cable interconnect.

Analog SD_TH Power VDD GND DAP Power Ground pad (DAP - die attach pad). Notes: FLOAT = 3rd input state, don't drive pin. Pin is internally biased to mid level with 50 k pull-up/pull-down. If high Z output not available, drive input to VDD/2 to assert mid level state. Internal pulldown = Internal 30 k pull-down resistor to GND is present on the input. LVCMOS inputs without the "Float" conditions must be driven to a logic Low or High at all times or operation is not guaranteed. Input edge rate for LVCMOS/FLOAT inputs must be faster than 50 ns from 10-90%. When in pin mode (ENSMB = 0) , the transceiver is configurable with external pins. Equalization and de-emphasis can be selected via pin for each side independently. When deemphasis is asserted VOD is automatically increased per the De-Emphasis table below for improved performance over lossy media. The receiver detect pins RXDETA/B provide manual control for input termination (50 or >50K). Rate optimization is also pin controllable, with pin selections for 2.5Gbps, 5Gbps, and auto detect. The receiver electrical idle detect threshold is also programmable via an optional external resistor on the SD_TH pin. Functional Description The DS50PCI401 is a low power media compensation 4 lane transceiver optimized for PCI Express Gen 1 and Gen 2 media including lossy FR-4 printed circuit board backplanes and balanced cables. The DS50PCI401 operates in two modes: Pin Control Mode (ENSMB = 0) and SMBus Mode (ENSMB = 1). Pin Control Mode: 5 www.national.com DS50PCI401 Pin Name DS50PCI401 SMBUS Mode: When in SMBus mode the equalization, de-emphasis, and termination disable features are all programmable on a individual lane basis, instead of grouped by sides as in the pin mode case. Upon assertion of ENSMB the RATE, EQx and DEMx functions revert to register control immediately. The EQx and DEMx pins are converted to AD0-AD3 SMBus ad- dress inputs. The other external control pins remain active unless their respective registers are written to and the appropriate override bit is set, in which case they are ignored until ENSMB is driven low. On powerup and when ENSMB is driven low all registers are reset to their default state. If PRSNT is asserted while ENSMB is high, the registers retain their current state. TABLE 1.

Idle Control (3-Level Input) DS50PCI401 is done with the CPRSNT# auxiliary signal. The CPRSNT# signal is asserted Low by the downstream componentry after the "Power Good" condition has been established. This mechanism allows for the upstream subsystem to determine whether the power is good within the downstream subsystem, enable the reference clock, and initiate the Link Training Sequence. USING RXDETA/B IN A PCIe ENVIRONMENT In order for upstream and downstream PCIe subsystems to communicate in a cabling environment, the PCIe specification includes several auxiliary or sideband signals to manage system-level functionality or implementation. Similar methods are used in backplane applications, but the exact implementation falls outside the PCIe standard. Initial communication from the downstream subsystem to the upstream subsystem 30060412 FIGURE 2. Typical PCIe System Timing The signals shown in the graphic could be easily replicated within the downstream subsystem and used to control the RXDETA/B inputs on the DS50PCI401. Often an onboard microcontroller will be used to handle events like power-up, power-down, power saving modes, and hot insertion. The microcontroller would use the same information to determine www.national.com when to enable and disable the DS50PCI401 input termination. In applications that require SMBus control, the microcontroller could also delay any response to the upstream subsystem to allow sufficient time to correctly program the DS50PCI401 and other devices on the board. 8 If Military/Aerospace specified devices are required, please contact the National Semiconductor Sales Office/ Distributors for availability and specifications. 6 kV 250 V 1250 V MM, STD - JESD22-A115-A CDM, STD - JESD22-C101-C Thermal Resistance Supply Voltage (VDD) -0.5V to +3.0V LVCMOS Input/Output Voltage -0.5V to +4.0V CML Input Voltage -0.5V to (VDD+0.5V) CML Input Current -30 to +30 mA LPDS Output Voltage -0.5V to (VDD+0.5V) Analog (SD_TH) -0.5V to (VDD+0.5V) Junction Temperature +125C Storage Temperature -40C to +125C Lead Temperature Range Soldering (4 sec.) +260C Maximum Package Power Dissipation at 25C SQA54A Package 4.21 W Derate SQA54A Package 52.6mW/C above +25C JC 11.5C/W JA, No Airflow, 4 layer JEDEC 19.1C/W Recommended Operating Conditions Supply Voltage VDD to GND Ambient Temperature SMBus (SDA, SCL) Supply Noise Tolerance up to 50Mhz (Note 4) Min Typ Max Units 2.375 -10 2.5 25 2.625 +85 3.6 100 V C V mV pp Electrical Characteristics Over recommended operating supply and temperature ranges with default register settings unless other specified.

The System Management Bus interface is compatible to SMBus 2.0 physical layer specification. ENSMB must be pulled high to enable SMBus mode and allow access to the configuration registers. The DS50PCI401 has the AD[3:0] inputs in SMBus mode. These pins are the user set SMBus slave address inputs. The AD[3:0] pins have internal pull-down. When left floating or pulled low the AD[3:0] = 0000'b, the device default address byte is A0'h. Based on the SMBus 2.0 specification, the DS50PCI401 has a 7-bit slave address of 1010000'b. The LSB is set to 0'b (for a WRITE), thus the 8-bit value is 1010 0000'b or A0'h. The device address byte can be set with the use of the AD[3:0] inputs. Below are some examples. AD[3:0] = 0001'b, the device address byte is A2'h AD[3:0] = 0010'b, the device address byte is A4'h AD[3:0] = 0100'b, the device address byte is A8'h AD[3:0] = 1000'b, the device address byte is B0'h The SDC and SDA pins are 3.3V LVCMOS signaling and include high-Z internal pull up resistors. External low impedance pull up resistors maybe required depending upon SMBus loading and speed. Note, these pins are not 5V tolerant. SMBus REGISTER WRITES: The DS50PCI401 outputs will NOT be PCIe compliant with the SMBus registers enabled (ENSMB = 1) until the VOD levels have been set. Below is an example to configure the VOD level to a PCIe compliant amplitude and adjust the DE and EQ signal conditioning to work with a 7m PCIe cable interconnect on the input B-side / output A-side of the device 1. Reset the SMBus registers to default values: Write 01'h to address 0x00. 2. Set VOD = 1.0V for all channels (OA[3:0] and OB[3:0]): Write 0F'h to address 0x10, 0x17, 0x1E, 0x25, 0x2D, 0x34, 0x3B, 0x42. 3. Set equalization to external pin level EQ[1:0] = 10 (~15.5 dB at 2.5 GHz) for all channels (IB[3:0]): Write 39'h to address 0x0F, 0x16, 0x1D, 0x24. 4. Set de-emphasis to DE[1:0] = F1 or -12 dB enhanced for all A channels (OA[3:0]): Write A0'h to address 0x2E, 0x35, 0x3C, 0x43. TRANSFER OF DATA VIA THE SMBus During normal operation the data on SDA must be stable during the time when SDC is High. There are three unique states for the SMBus: START: A High-to-Low transition on SDA while SDC is High indicates a message START condition. STOP: A Low-to-High transition on SDA while SDC is High indicates a message STOP condition. IDLE: If SDC and SDA are both High for a time exceeding tBUF from the last detected STOP condition or if they are High for a total exceeding the maximum specification for tHIGH then the bus will transfer to the IDLE state. IDLE AND RATE DETECTION TO EXTERNAL PINS The functions of IDLE and RATE detection to external pins for monitoring can be supported in SMBus mode. The external GPIO pins of 19, 20, 46 and 47 will be changed and they will serve as outputs for IDLE and RATE detect signals. The following external pins should be set to auto detection: RATE = F (FLOAT) - auto RATE detect enabled TXIDLEA/B = F (FLOAT) - auto IDLE detect enabled There are 4 GPIO pins that can be configured as outputs with reg_4E[0]. To disable the external SMBus address pins, so pin 46 and 47 can be used as outputs: SMBus TRANSACTIONS The device supports WRITE and READ transactions. See Register Description table for register address, type (Read/ Write, Read Only), default value and function information. WRITING A REGISTER To write a register, the following protocol is used (see SMBus 2.0 specification). 1. The Host drives a START condition, the 7-bit SMBus address, and a "0" indicating a WRITE. 2. The Device (Slave) drives the ACK bit ("0"). 3. The Host drives the 8-bit Register Address. 4. The Device drives an ACK bit ("0"). 5. The Host drive the 8-bit data byte. 6. The Device drives an ACK bit ("0"). 7. The Host drives a STOP condition. The WRITE transaction is completed, the bus goes IDLE and communication with other SMBus devices may now occur. Write 01'h to address 0x4E. Care must be taken to ensure that only the desired status block is enabled and attached to the external pin as the status blocks can be OR'ed together internally. Register bits reg_47 [5:4] and bits reg_4C[7:6] are used to enable each of the status block outputs to the external pins. The channel status blocks can be internally OR'ed together to monitor more than one channel at a time. This allows more information to be presented on the status outputs and later if desired, a diagnosis of the channel identity can be made with additional SMBus writes to register bits reg_47[5:4] and bits reg_4C [7:6]. Below are examples to configure the device and bring the internal IDLE and RATE status to pins 19, 20, 46, 47. READING A REGISTER To read a register, the following protocol is used (see SMBus 2.0 specification). 1. The Host drives a START condition, the 7-bit SMBus address, and a "0" indicating a WRITE. To monitor the IDLE detect with two channels ORed (CH0 with CH2, CH1 with CH3, CH4 with CH6, CH5 with CH7): 17 www.national.com DS50PCI401 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. System Management Bus (SMBus) and Configuration Registers DS50PCI401 Write 32'h to address 0x47. The following IDLE status should be observable on the external pins: pin 19 - CH0 with CH2, pin 20 - CH1 with CH3, pin 46 - CH4 with CH6, pin 47 - CH5 with CH7. Pin = HIGH (VDD) means IDLE is detected (no signal present). Pin = LOW (GND) means ACTIVE (data signal present). To monitor the RATE detect with two channels ORed (CH0 with CH2, CH1 with CH3, CH4 with CH6, CH5 with CH7): www.national.com Write C0'h to address 0x4C. The following RATE status should be observable on the external pins: pin 19 - CH0 with CH2, pin 20 - CH1 with CH3, pin 46 - CH4 with CH6, pin 47 - CH5 with CH7. Pin = HIGH (VDD) means high data rate is detected (6 Gbps). Pin = LOW (GND) means low rate is detected (3 Gbps). 18 DS50PCI401 TABLE 6.

It is preferable to route differential lines exclusively on one layer of the board, particularly for the input traces. The use of vias should be avoided if possible. If vias must be used, they should be used sparingly and must be placed symmetrically for each side of a given differential pair. Whenever differential vias are used the layout must also provide for a low inductance path for the return currents as well. Route the differential signals away from other signals and noise sources on the printed circuit board. See AN-1187 for additional information on LLP packages. Applications Information GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS The DS50PCI401 is a high performance circuit capable of delivering excellent performance. Careful attention must be paid to the details associated with high-speed design as well as providing a clean power supply. Refer to the information below and the latest version of the LVDS Owner's Manual for more detailed information on high speed design tips to address signal integrity design issues. PCB LAYOUT CONSIDERATIONS FOR DIFFERENTIAL PAIRS The CML inputs and LPDS outputs have been optimized to work with interconnects using a controlled differential 30060410 FIGURE 8. Typical Routing Options The graphic shown above depicts different transmission line topologies which can be used in various combinations to achieve the optimal system performance. Impedance discontinuities at the differential via can be minimized or eliminated by increasing the swell around each hole and providing for a low inductance return current path. When the via structure is associated with thick backplane PCB, further optimization such as back drilling is often used to reduce the deterimential high frequency effects of stubs on the signal path. connected to power planes routed on adjacent layers of the printed circuit board. The layer thickness of the dielectric should be minimized so that the VDD and GND planes create a low inductance supply with distributed capacitance. Second, careful attention to supply bypassing through the proper use of bypass capacitors is required. A 0.01 F bypass capacitor should be connected to each VDD pin such that the capacitor is placed as close as possible to the DS50PCI401. Smaller body size capacitors can help facilitate proper component placement. Additionally, three capacitors with capacitance in the range of 2.2 F to 10 F should be incorporated in the power supply bypassing design as well. These capacitors can be either tantalum or an ultra-low ESR ceramic. POWER SUPPLY BYPASSING Two approaches are recommended to ensure that the DS50PCI401 is provided with an adequate power supply.
