Tsi721 Datasheet 34 April 4, 2016
Integrated Device Technology
7. ZRX-HIGH-IMP-DC-NEG and ZRX-HIGH-IMP-DC-POS are defined respectively for negative and positive voltages at the
input of the Receiver. Transmitter designers need to comprehend the large difference between >0 and <0 Rx impedances
when designing Receiver detect circuits.
8. The LRX-SKEW parameter exists to handle repeaters that regenerate Refclk and introduce differing numbers of skips on
different lanes.
3.7.2 PCIe Differential Transmitter Specifications
Table 19 lists the electrical characteristics for the PCIe differential transmitters in the Tsi721. Parameters are defined
separately for 2.5 Gbps and 5.0 Gbps implementations. Table 19 is duplicated from the PCI Express Base Specification
(Rev. 2.1) Section 4.3.3.5 Table 4-9 on page 252.
