Important notice

NXP provides the enclosed product(s) under the following conditions:

This evaluation kit is intended for use of ENGINEERING DEVELOPMENT OR

EVALUATION PURPOSES ONLY. It is provided as a sample IC pre-soldered to a

printed circuit board to make it easier to access inputs, outputs, and supply terminals.

This evaluation board may be used with any development system or other source of

I/O signals by simply connecting it to the host MCU or computer board via off-the-

shelf cables. This evaluation board is not a Reference Design and is not intended to

represent a final design recommendation for any particular application. Final device in

an application will be heavily dependent on proper printed circuit board layout and heat

sinking design as well as attention to supply filtering, transient suppression, and I/O

signal quality.

The goods provided may not be complete in terms of required design, marketing, and

or manufacturing related protective considerations, including product safety measures

typically found in the end product incorporating the goods. Due to the open construction

of the product, it is the user's responsibility to take any and all appropriate precautions

with regard to electrostatic discharge. In order to minimize risks associated with the

customers applications, adequate design and operating safeguards must be provided

by the customer to minimize inherent or procedural hazards. For any safety concerns,

contact NXP sales and technical support services.

PTN3944 linear equalizer application board user manual

1 Introduction

The PTN3944 is a high-performance, multi-channel, linear equalizer optimized for PCIe

4.0, UPI, and similar high-speed interfaces. Using multiple components of the PTN3944

supports redriving PCIe signals on x1, x2, x4, x8, or x16 devices installed in a PCIe slot.

This document details how to properly connect the evaluation board in a system in order

to interface a chipset and a PCIe device. The document also illustrates; the Graphical

User Interface (GUI) to configure the equalizer settings of transmitters and receivers;

LPCUSBSIO module operation; and configuration with the PTN3944 application board.

2 PTN3944 PCIe Add-In-Card

The PTN3944 PCIe Add-In-Card (AIC) is designed for use in an available PCIe x16 slot

on a PC or server computer. In addition, using the CEM connector on the top, a PCIe

device can be attached. On the front side of the AIC, there are four PTN3944 that redrive

PCIe signals from motherboard side (from CPU/chipset) to the PCIe device. On the

back side of the AIC, another 4 PTN3944 redrive PCIe signals from a PCIe device to the

motherboard side (to CPU/chipset). The PTN3944 equalizer, output swing level, or flat

gain settings can be configured through either an I2C bus, or using the onboard pull-up/

down DIP switches.

The AIC power is supplied from either gold finger 3.3 V, or from an external 5.0 V power

supply. Each redriver consumes up to 250 mA of current at 1.8 V. With all 8 components

of the PTN3944 active at the same time, the AIC consumes up to 2 A of current at 1.8 V.

NXP recommends using an external 5.0 V, 1 A power supply instead of using power

from the PCIe gold finger. An onboard DC-to-DC power converter converts 5.0 V input to

1.8 V.
