Product Description
the most efficient high-performance I/O connectivity solution for applica-
tions requiring high throughput, low latency, and simple board layout
with a minimum number of board layers. With support for non-trans-
parent bridging, the PES24NT3, as a standalone switch or as a chipset
with IDT PCIe System Interconnect Switches, enables multi-host and
intelligent I/O applications requiring inter-domain communication. The
PES24NT3 provides 96 Gbps (12 GBps) of aggregated, full-duplex
switching capacity through 24 integrated serial lanes, using proven and
robust IDT technology. Each lane provides 2.5 Gbps of bandwidth in
both directions and is fully compliant with PCI Express Base specifica-
tion 1.0a.
ture. The PCI Express layer consists of SerDes, Physical, Data Link and
Transaction layers in compliance with PCI Express Base specification
Revision 1.0a. The PES24NT3 can operate either as a store and
forward or cut-through switch depending on the packet size and is
designed to switch memory and I/O transactions. It supports eight Traffic
Classes (TCs) and one Virtual Channel (VC) with sophisticated resource
management. This includes round robin port arbitration, guaranteeing

lanes. Each of the three ports is statically allocated 8 lanes with ports
labeled as A, B and C. Port A is the upstream port, port B is the trans-
parent downstream port, and port C is the non-transparent downstream
port.
PES24NT3 port is capable of independently negotiating to a x8, x4, x2
or x1 width. Thus, the PES24NT3 may be used in virtually any three port
switch configuration (e.g., {x8, x8, x8}, {x4, x4, x4}, {x4, x2, x1}, etc.).
The PES24NT3 supports static lane reversal. For example, lane
reversal for upstream port A may be configured by asserting the PCI
Express Port A Lane Reverse (PEALREV) input signal or through serial
EEPROM or SMBus initialization. Lane reversal for ports B and C may
be enabled via a configuration space register, serial EEPROM, or the
SMBus.
The PES24NT3 is a three port switch that contains 24 PCI Express
During link training, link width is automatically negotiated. Each
