Diodes Incorporated has further strengthened its range of PCIe solutions with the addition of a new high-speed data rate ReDriver device. The DIODES PI2EQX16924 is the industry’s first available PCIe 4.0 ReDriver that operates from a 1.8V voltage rail, where competing solutions have to use a 3.3V rail. It addresses a broad variety of computing and data communication applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PI2EQX16924 only consumes 288mW and 27mW respectively when in active and low-power modes, particularly important for saving battery charge in portable applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The device features four differential channels that are independently configurable in terms of receiver equalisation and flat gain. This mitigates inter-symbol interference and allows signal loss compensation, so that longer PCB trace lengths can be achieved. As the I2C interface is used for such configuration work, firmware requirements are minimal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The PI2EQX16924<\/a><\/strong> is capable of handling data rates up to 16Gbps. The device is compliant with PCIe 4.0 and backwards compatible with PCIe 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 generations. An industrial temperature range from -40\u00b0C to 85\u00b0C is supported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
