Part Number: DS80PCI800

HI TI Sir,  I used two IC DS80PCI800 on riser card. One repeater is for TX, PCIE lane from MB to SSD, One repeater is for RX, from SSD to MB. Both same setting(DQ,VOD,DEM) for these two IC. but TX can enlarge 190mv of eye height (380mv after repeater), RX only enlarge 50mv after repeater.

My quesiton:

1. How to set  parameter for two different repeater by sigcon Architect?

2. the 2nd DC80PCI800 address must be 0xb2? May i change to 0xB4? if change to 0XB4, we must choose 2 or 3 decive?

    Hi,

    To set the devices independently with different settings, you must change the "Slot #". I recommend setting Device Address 0xB0 for Slot 0 and Device Address 0xB2 for Slot 1.For the sake of simplicity, I recommend using address 0xB2 for the 2nd DS80PCI800 instead of 0xB4.

    To change the Slot #:
    (1) Navigate to the table that shows "Device Address" and "Slot #."
    (2) In the "Slot # " column, double-click on the "Slot #" Selection box in the row that matches the Device Address you wish to change (for example, Device Address 0xB4) and change the Slot # from "0" to "1."

    To update Slot 1 with the desired settings:
    (1) After changing the Slot # from Slot 0 to Slot 1 with the steps above, go back to either the "Repeater Page" or "Low Level Page" and make adjustments to the settings as you wish for Slot 1. Make sure to click "Apply" for changes to take place in the GUI, even if you are in Demo Mode.
    (2) Go back to the EEPROM Page, and highlight the row that shows "Device Address" = 0xB2 and "Slot #" = 1. You will see that the "Major Channgle Settings" table on the bottom of the screen shows "Slot 1" information.
    (3) To update Slot 1, verify that "Slot UPdate Details shows "Slot #1" selected in the radio box. After verifying, click "Update Slot From Device" to update Slot 1's unique settings to the EEPROM Hex File.

    When finished with programming the Hex File with settings for Slot 0 and Slot 1, you can "Write to EEPROM Hex."

    Thanks,

    Michael
