Receiver Detect State Machine

The DS160PR410-Q1 deploys an Rx detect state machine that governs the Rx detection cycle as defined in the PCI express specifications. At power up or after a manual PD or SEL toggle the redriver determines whether or not a valid PCI express termination is present at the far end receiver. The RX_DET pin of DS160PR410-Q1 provides additional flexibility for system designers to appropriately set the device in desired mode as provided in Table 6-3. For most applications the RX_DET pin can be left floating for default settings. In SMBus/I2C mode each channel can be configured independently.

Table 6-3 Receiver Detect State Machine Settings
PD RX_DET Rx Common-mode Impedance COMMENTS
L L0 Always 50Ω PCI Express Rx detection state machine is disabled. Recommended for non PCIe interface use case where the DS160PR410-Q1 is used as buffer with equalization.
L L1 Pre Detect: Hi-Z
Post Detect: 50Ω.
Outputs polls until 3 consecutive valid detections
L L2 Pre Detect: Hi-Z
Post Detect: 50Ω.
Outputs polls until 2 consecutive valid detections
L L3 NA Reserved
L L4 (Float) Pre Detect: Hi-Z
Post Detect: 50Ω.
Tx polls every ≅150µs until valid termination is detected. Rx CM impedance held at Hi-Z until detection Reset by asserting PD high for 200µs then low.
H X Hi-Z Set their Rx impedance to Hi-Z

In PCIe applications PD pins can be connected to PCIe sideband signals PERST# with inverted polarity or one or more appropriate PRSNTx# signals to achieve desired RX detect functionality.
