Single Lane and Quad Lane 16Gbps PCIe4.0 PHY IP in TSMC 28HPC process

Overview

TERMINUS CIRCUITS PCIe GEN4.0 PHY is high performance, low power, low latency Single & Quad-Lane PCI Express PHY that supports PCI Express protocol and its signalling needs. It has features like clocking and clock & Data recovering, Serialization and De-Serialization of Data, 128/130b data coding, Receiver detection.

TERMINUS CIRCUITS PCIe GEN 4.0 PHY uses 32/16bit Data PIPE interface. It also supports lower power management states like L0s, L1, L1-sub-states and L2. PCIe Gen 4.0 PHY IP is available in TSMC 28nm HPC/HPC+ process.

* A limited number of Test Chips manufactured in TSMC 28HPC (Single lane and Quad Lanes) are available for Early customers. Contact us for more details.
