PCIe/USB/SATA Combo PHY

Key Features

  • Standard PHY interface (PIPE) enables multiple IP sources for PCIe/USB/SATA MAC Layer
  • Dual port PIPE with shared REF_CLK configurable to be 2-lane PCIe PHY
  • Supports 2.5 GT/s and 5.0 GT/s serial data transmission rate in PCIe mode
  • Supports 5.0 GT/s serial data transmission rate in USB mode
  • Supports 1.5 GT/s, 3.0 GT/s and 6.0 GT/s serial data transmission rate in SATA mode
  • Supports 16- or 32-bit parallel interface when encoding/ decoding enabled
  • Supports 20-bit parallel interface when encoding/ decoding bypassed
  • Supports PCLK as PHY output
  • Data and clock recovery from serial stream
  • 8b/10b encoder/decoder and error indication
  • Supports direct disparity control for use in transmitting compliance pattern in PCIe mode
  • Supports power change and rate change in same PCLK cycle in PCIe/SATA mode
  • Receiver detection in PCIe/USB mode
  • Beacon transmission and reception in PCIe mode
  • Low Frequency Periodic Signaling (LFPS) transmission and reception in USB mode
  • COMWAKE, COMINIT and COMRESET (OOB) transmission and reception in SATA mode
  • Supports transmitting LFPS when power state changes
  • Selectable TX margining in PCIe/USB mode
  • Selectable TX de-emphasis, and signal swing values in PCIe mode
  • Compliant with PCIe/USB/SATA base specification
