Hello,
Our customer use the DS50PCI402, want to know about the auto Rx detection.
The customer's condition is as follows.
x4 lane
ENRXDET=0 RXDETA/B=0
connecting:ASIC---DS50PCI402---end point device
system sequence is as follows.
pattern A
power on all devices with reset on
PRSNT pin contiue Low fron start
reset removal
patternB
Power on all devices with reset on
PRSNT Low High Low (toggle)
reset removal
In case of pattern A, there's no problem with Link-up.
In case of pattern B, Link-up fail sometime at some lane.
question 1
Is there any difference from pattern A to pattern B with
the auto detection system?
question 2
Does it need 5ms(min) from PRSNT high to Low to reset removal?
(It is mentioned on the datasheet P10 Fig.2.)
It is no problem in the case of the manual detection mode.
But, the end user of the customer decide use or not use the auto Rx detection.
So, the customer have to make the DS50PCI402 to use the auto Rx detection correctly.
Best Regards,
Naoki Aoyama
