HI,
Can I use 4pcs DS80PCI800 as a repeater for PCIe x16 (16 TX pairs and 16 RX pairs)?
If yes, how to configure 4pcs DS80PCI800?
Best Regards

Hi Sean,
Yes, this can be done, with 2 x DS80PCI800s used for the downstream and 2 x DS80PCI800s for the upstream.
To see how to configure, I recommend referencing the TIDA-00423 reference design, which is designed for a x16 application: http://www.ti.com/tool/tida-00423
Thanks,
Michael
