Description of the EB12N3
Eval Board
Introduction
The 89HPES12N3 switch (also referred to as PES12N3 in this manual) is a member of IDT’s PCI
Express standard (PCIe) based line of products. It is a 3 port switch, with 4 serial lanes per port (x4). One
upstream port is provided for connecting to the root complex (RC), and two downstream ports are available
for connecting to PCIe endpoints or to another switch. More information on this device can be found in the
89HPES12N3 User Manual.
The 89EBPES12N3 Evaluation Board (also referred to as EB12N3 in this manual) provides an evalua-
tion platform for the PES12N3 switch. It is also a cost effective way to add a PCIe downstream port (x4) to
an existing system with a limited number of PCIe downstream ports. The EB12N3 eval board is designed to
function as an add-on card to be plugged into a x4 PCIe slot available on a motherboard hosting an appro-
priate root complex and microprocessor(s). The EB12N3 is a vehicle to test and evaluate the functionality of
the PES12N3 chip, and it can also play an important role for customers to get a headstart on software
development while they await the arrival of their own hardware. It is also used inside IDT to reproduce
system level hardware or software issues reported by customers. Figure 1.1 illustrates the functional block
diagram representing the main parts of the EB12N3 board.
