3.3V or 2.5V Supply Mode Operation
The DS125BR800A has an optional internal voltage regulator to provide the 2.5V supply to the device. In 3.3V
mode operation, the VIN pin = 3.3V is used to supply power to the device. The internal regulator will provide the
2.5V to the VDD pins of the device and a 0.1 uF cap is needed at each of the 5 VDD pins for power supply de-
coupling (total capacitance should be ≤0.5 uF), and the VDD pins should be left open. The VDD_SEL pin must
be tied to GND to enable the internal regulator. In 2.5V mode operation, the VIN pin should be left open and 2.5V
supply must be applied to the 5 VDD pins to power the device. The VDD_SEL pin must be left open (no connect)
to disable the internal regulator.

PCIE SIGNAL INTEGRITY
When using the DS125BR800A in PCIe GEN-3 systems, there are specific signal integrity settings to ensure
signal integrity margin. The settings were achieved with completing extensive testing. Please contact your field
representative for more information regarding the testing completed to achieve these settings.
For tuning the in the downstream direction (from CPU to EP).
• EQ: use the guidelines outlined in Table 3.
• De-Emphasis: use the guidelines outlined in Table 4.
• VOD: use the guidelines outlined in Table 4.
For tuning in the upstream direction (from EP to CPU).
• EQ: use the guidelines outlined in Table 3.
• De-Emphasis:
– For trace lengths < 15" set to -3.5 dB
– For trace lengths > 15" set to -6 dB
• VOD: set to 900 mV
