DESCRIPTION
The SN65LVPE501 is a dual channel, single lane PCIe redriver and signal conditioner supporting data rates of
up to 5.0Gbps. The device complies with PCIe spec revision 2.1.
Programmable EQ, De-Emphasis and Amplitude Swing
The SN65LVPE501 is designed to minimize the signal degradation effects such as crosstalk and inter-symbol
interference (ISI) that limits the interconnect distance between two devices. The input stage of each channel
offers selectable equalization settings that can be programmed to match loss in the channel. The differential
outputs provide selectable de-emphasis to compensate for the anticipated distortion PCIe signal will experience.
Level of de-emphasis will depend on the length of interconnect and its characteristics. Both equalization and de-
emphasis levels are controlled by the setting of signal control pins EQ1, EQ2 and DE1, DE2.
To provide additional control of signal integrity in extended backplane applications LVPE501 provides
independent output amplitude control for each channel. See Table 2 for setting details.
Device PowerOn
Device initiates internal power-on reset after V_CC has stabilized. External reset can also be applied at anytime by
toggling RST pin. External reset is recommended after every device power-up. When RST is driven high, the
device samples the state of EN_RXD, if it is set H device enters Rx.Detect state where each channel will perform
Rx.Detect function (as described in PCIe spec). If EN_RXD is set L, automatic RX detect function is disabled and
both channels are enabled with their termination set to Z_{DC_RX}.
Receiver Detection
While EN_RXD pin is H and device is not in sleep mode (RST is H), SN65LVPE501 performs RX.Detect on both
channels indefinitely until remote termination is detected on both channels. Automatic Rx detection feature can
be forced off by driving EN_RXD low. In this state both channels input termination are set to Z_{DC_RX}.
