IDT™ 89EBPES24T6 Evaluation Board Manual (Eval Board: 18-609-000) November 2006
●Introduction
■The 89HPES24T6 switch (also referred to as PES24T6 in this manual)is a member of IDT's PCI Express® standard (PCle®) based line of products. It is a 6-port switch, with 4 serial lanes per port. Two x4 ports can be merged to form one x8 port. One upstream port is provided for connecting to the root complex (RC), and up to five downstream ports are available for connecting to PCle endpoints or to another switch. More information on this device can be found in the 89HPES24T6 User Manual.
■The 89EBPES24T6 Evaluation Board (also referred to as EB24T6 in this manual) provides an evaluation platform for the PES24T6 switch. It is also a cost effective way to add a PCle downstream port (x4, x8) to an existing system with a limited number of PCle downstream ports. The EB24T6 eval board is designed to function as an add-on card to be plugged into a x8 PCle slot available on a motherboard hosting an appropriate root complex, microprocessor(s), and four downstream ports. The EB24T6 _is a vehicle to test and evaluate the functionality of the PES24T6 chip. Customers can use this board to get a headstart on software development prior to the arrival of their own hardware. The EB24T6 is also used by IDT to reproduce system-level hardware or software issues reported by customers. Figure 1.1 ilustrates the functional block diagram representing the main parts of the EB24T6 board.
