Features
PEX 8632
PCIe Gen2, 5.0GT/s 32-lane, 12-port Switch
PEX 8632 General Features
o 32-lane, 12-port PCIe Gen2 switch
- Integrated 5.0 GT/s SerDes
o 27 x 27mm2, 676-pin FCBGA package
o Typical Power: 2.8 Watts
The ExpressLaneTM PEX 8632 device offers PCI Express switching
capability enabling users to add scalable high bandwidth, non-blocking
interconnection to a wide variety of applications including servers,
storage systems, and communications platforms. The PEX 8632 is
well suited for fan-out, aggregation, and peer-to-peer applications.
PEX 8632 Key Features
o Standards Compliant
- PCI Express Base Specification, r2.0
(backwards compatible w/ PCIe r1.0a/1.1)
- PCI Power Management Spec, r1.2
- Microsoft Vista Compliant
- Supports Access Control Services
- Dynamic link-width control
- Dynamic SerDes speed control
o High Performance
- Non-blocking switch fabric
- Full line rate on all ports
- Packet Cut-Thru with 145ns max packet
latency (x8 to x8)
- 2KB Max Payload Size
High Performance & Low Packet Latency
The PEX 8632 architecture supports packet cut-thru with a maximum
latency of 145ns (x8 to x8). 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.
- Read Pacing (bandwidth throttling)
- Dual-Cast
o Flexible Configuration
- Ports configurable as x1, x2, x4, x8, x16
- Registers configurable with strapping
pins, EEPROM, I2C, or host software
- Lane and polarity reversal
- Compatible with PCIe 1.0a PM
o Dual-Host & Fail-Over Support
- Configurable Non-Transparent port
- Moveable upstream port
Data Integrity
The PEX 8632 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.
- Crosslink port capability
o Quality of Service (QoS)
Flexible Register & Port Configuration
The PEX 8632’s 12 ports can be configured to lane widths of x1, x2, x4, x8,
or x16. 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 8632 also provides
- Eight traffic classes per port
- Weighted round-robin source
port arbitration
o Reliability, Availability, Serviceability
- 3 Hot Plug Ports with native HP Signals
- All ports hot plug capable thru I2C
(Hot Plug Controller on every port)
- ECRC and Poison bit support
- Data Path parity
- Memory (RAM) Error Correction
- INTA# and FATAL_ERR# signals
- Advanced Error Reporting
- Port Status bits and GPIO available
- Per port error diagnostics
