DS160PR810: Redriver- DS160PR810NJXR (TI) -SI

Part Number: DS160PR810

 

Hi Team, 

We performed Signal Integrity analysis on the PCIe lanes by adjusting the following parameters in the redriver IBIS-AMI model, and we obtained improved SI results. For this analysis, we referred to the DS160PR810 IBIS-AMI Model User’s Guide.

The IBIS-AMI settings used are:

  • eq_hi_gain = 1 (3.5 dB)
  • eq_en_bypass = 0
  • eq_bst1 = 6
  • eq_bst2 = 6
  • drv_sel_vod[0:3] = 3 (0 dB)

 

For the schematic implementation, we currently have provision to configure the following hardware parameters:

  • CTLE settings through EQ1 and EQ0
  • Flat Gain settings through GAIN1 and GAIN0

For these schematic-level settings, we referred to the DS160PR810 datasheet.

 

However, we cannot directly correlate the SI IBIS-AMI model settings with the device’s hard-coded EQ and GAIN pin settings.

Could you please advise which EQ and GAIN values should be selected for the schematic design so that they best match the above IBIS-AMI configuration?

Regards,
