Kingdom California San Francisco - the leading global high-speed connection, frequency and signal regulating the Pericom Semiconductor chip venders Corporation (nasdaq market code: PSEM) has announced the launching of facing the PCI Express? (PCIe)? The ReDriver 3.0? Signal regulating (like) signal, signal switching (switch), frequency signal generation and Buffer (Buffer) line.

The new generation of PCIe 3.0 specifications established topped 8Gbps working speed, and the existing PCIe 2.0 5Gbs compared to accelerate the 60%, At the same time the new specifications for have more efficient coding method, make its data transmission speed more increase 100%. Many existing 5Gbs system for signal integrity in question had need to use signal regulating solutions to good works. New 8Gbs speed signals in PCB board and cable will face more serious signal integrity questions that will influence the stability of the system and the next generation design performance.

In order to solve this difficult problem, Pericom will provide two uniquely designed for PCIe 3.0 technical development of the ReDriver signal regulating chip (PI2EQX8804 and PI2EQX8864), they can restore signal integrity, thus promotes the system stability. And all the other more complex solutions to compare, they simplifies the design, reducing the energy consumption and realize the stable repeatable EQ set and reduce the cost. PI2EQX8804 and widely used today in 5Gbs on similar products (PI2EQX5804) can be compatible, so for the next generation sutural system designers provided larger design flexibility and more the upgrade of choice.

"Pericom is a long-term valued PCI Express product suppliers, we are glad to see the company launched a series of products," PCIe 3.0 pci-sig President Al Yanes said: "we expected the market such as Pericom company on this early first company, can make full use of this opportunity to launch based on the PCIe 3.0 8GT/s performance and speed of all kinds of products."

"Pericom pleasure to join the first for emerging PCIe 3.0 application launched product solutions suppliers in the frame." Pericom senior vice President Gerry market LiuXiaoHong (Liu), says dr "because of the past in the enormous success PCIe 2.0 product line with rich experience, our first customers are already in their next generation servers, storage equipment and embedded platform on evaluation of our PCIe 3.0 solution."

Pericom also provides additional two paragraphs compatible PCIe 3.0 specifications signal switching product solutions, can make 8Gbs speed signals online way to lanes (lane to lane) or connector to connector exchange, they have low latency, low power consumption and low signal loss etc. Characteristics. This road line two of products provide a blunt - PI3PCIE3412) and benefiting way (fold - back way (PI3PCIE3415) pins option that allows signal route and PCB wiring designed to achieve optimization. These two chip product use very province space of 5mm TQFN encapsulation. 9mmx3.

As a complete PCIe 3.0 solutions provider, Pericom frequency solutions include two paragraphs low jitter (jitter), compatible at PCIe 3.0 specifications of the clock generator: namely double output port of PI6C557-03B and four output port of PI6C557-05B. Meanwhile, Pericom also launched a two clock buffers (clock buffer) products: namely the PI6C20400B and 8 exalt the PI6C20800B. This different clock generator provides an extremely low 0.45 pS RMS phase noise (typical values), can reduce the throne of the whole system Error Rate (Bit Rate) as freely. Two other clock buffers products can be replicated and allocated multiple low jitter PCIe specifications of 100MHz frequency signals. Plus Pericom low jitter SHPCIe100 XO products, customers can for their platform design of intact, excellent signal noise allowance (how) and in line with jitter PCIe 3.0 specifications of frequency signal solutions.
