1General Information

The PEX8605 TQFP RDK is a PLX Rapid Development Kit intended primarily for use by PLX customers for silicon

evaluation and design reference. The form factor is based on the PCI Express Card Electromechanical specification.

The board is designed to work by plugging internally into a PCI Express compliant motherboard. Figure 1 shows the

board outline and component placement.

The PEX8605 TQFP RDK has 1 x4 upstream port connector and 3 x16 PCIe connectors. The upstream edge connector

has 1 or 2 PCIe Gen2 lanes electrically connected to it, and the downstream PCIe connectors have 1 PCIe Gen2 lane

each electrically connected to it depending on the installed configuration module.

The PEX8605 TQFP RDK supports the use of one configuration module slot to provide flexibility in the routing of PCIe

lane 1 to either the x4 PCIe edge connector or to one of the PCIe slots. The Configuration Module enables the RDK to

support the following port configurations:
