Application:
Single Port DS3/E3 ATM Advanced
Mezzanine Card for Telecom Edge Access
PLX Product:
PEX 8111 - x1 PCIe to PCI Bridge
Key Benefit:
Leverage PCI-based Designs into PCI
Express
Telecom Systems Move to PCI Express
High availability telecom edge access
applications systems have adopted PCI
Express (PCIe) to allow systems to
deliver high performance, better
reliability, smaller size, lower cost and
performance scalability into the future.
T h e P C I I n d u s t r i a l C o m p u t e r
Manufacturing Group (PICMG) has
developed the ATCA (Advanced Telecom Computing Architecture)
standard, migrating the PCI-based CompactPCI specifications,
using PCIe-based I/O standards. One such
specification is the AMC.1 (a.k.a. Advanced
Mezzanine Card), which is a hot swappable
daughter card for ATCA system boards. The
AMC.1 specification calls out PCIe as the
interconnect standard. Many of the existing cPCI
functions are now required in the AMC form
factor. This requires the cards to have new I/O
interfaces. Redesigning the I/Os on the OC-3 SAR chip to support
PCIe is a costly and time-consuming activity, and actually may never
happen due to IP required to deploy PCIe.
This Transition Calls for a Bridge
The PEX 8111 from PLX provides the transitional silicon
solution. It allows the AMC designer to leverage an
existing cPCI design, which uses PCI-native silicon,
directly into the AMC.1 form factor. The 32-bit PCI-native SAR
connects directly to the PEX 8111 PCI bus and is converted into the
PCIe protocol with very little impact to power or board space.
Issue No. 27
AMC Card Gets Into the ExpressLane
Here’s a closer look at the design of the AMC Card.
It is a single wide, full height, AMC.1 compliant
ATM adapter, featuring a front I/O full duplex
DS3/E3 interface. This card uses PCIe to
communicate with the host processor in an ATCA
system. The Segmentation and Reassembly (SAR)
segments and reassembles AAL0, AAL3/4, and
AAL5 cells. It will manage and pass AAL1, AAL2,
and raw cells. This card includes one full duplex
DS3/E3 port.
Key Advantages of Using PLX
PLX is the industry’s leading supplier of PCI
Express I/O interconnect Switches and Bridges . The
company is focused on the design and support of
silicon in the first wave of PCI Express systems.
PLX is also an Executive Member of the PICMG
and was a key contributor to the newly released PCI
Express AMC.1 specification. The PEX 8111 Bridge
has become the de-facto standard for upgrading PCI
components and adapter cards to the AMC form
factor.
Lead-Free Packaging Available NOW!
The PEX 8111 is available in lead-free, RoHS-
compliant versions as well as the traditional leaded
packages.
