Feature Descriptions
PCI Express Endpoint Connectivity
[Figure 1-2, callout 13]
The 8-lane PCI Express edge connector performs data transfers at the rate of
2.5 gigatransfers per second (GT/s) for a Gen1 application and 5.0 GT/s for a Gen2
application. The PCIe transmit and receive signal datapaths have a characteristic
impedance of 85Ω ±10%. The PCIe clock is routed as a 100Ω differential pair. The 7 series
FPGAs GTX transceivers are used for multi-gigabit per second serial interfaces.
The XC7VX485T-2FFG1761C FPGA (-2 speed grade) included with the VC707 board
supports up to Gen2 x8.
The PCIe clock is input from the edge connector. It is AC coupled to the FPGA through the
MGTREFCLK1 pins of Quad 115. PCIE_CLK_Q0_P is connected to FPGA U1 pin AB8, and
the _N net is connected to pin AB7. The PCI Express clock circuit is shown in Figure 1-14.
PCIe lane width/size is selected through jumper J49 (Figure 1-15). The default lane size
selection is 1-lane (J49 pins 1 and 2 jumpered).
Table 1-12 lists the PCIe edge connector connections at P1.
