XIO3130 drive strength

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: XIO3130, XIO3130EVM

1、What is the driving strength of a XIO3130 chip?

2、Can a XIO3130 device support 24 slave devices by cascading multiple XIO3130 devices?

  • 1. PCI Express uses point-to-point connections. Each port can drive only one other port. However, the ports of a switch are independent.

    2. The XIO3130 itself should be able to support this. But the software/firmware on the host must be able to configure the address ranges of all the subordinate buses correctly; check with a bunch of XIO3130EVM‍s and PCIe x1 cables first.
