Hi Rajeev,

I might have mixed this up with the PCIeGen3 Spec (I haven't checked).

Hi Gert,
Thanks for the response. But I didn't find  any mention of this special Bit 
pattern. In fact the spec says that the "The maximum value is calculated on a 
per unit interval evaluation".
So it should be measured in the UI. What you are pointing out is probably for 
the De-Emphasis measurement.

Rgds,
Rajeev

The spec says that you should use a special Bit Pattern (8xHigh + 8xLow; or 
64xHigh + 64xLow) to make sure that the ringing is settled. The p-p voltage is 
then measured in the center of the ringing-free area. It is not measured at the 
eye diagram.

Betreff: [SI-LIST] Clarification on PCIE2.0 Base Spec for Voltage Pk-Pk 
Measurement.

I need some clarification for PCIe 2.0 Base Spec Voltage Pk-Pk Measurement 
Method.

As per the PCIe Gen2 Base Spec,  the differential p-p is defined as below(for 
both 5Gbps and 2.5Gbps data rate).


 Vtx-diff-pp = 2*|Vp - Vn|   and should be within 0.8v to 1.2v
Vp/Vn are single Ended Voltages.



I have the following questions on this

1)Each UI High/low level can have noise riding over it. In such a case, where 
is this p-p measured? Is it measured at the center of the UI? Or it can be 
measured at any point of the UI where p-p is minimum or Maximum?
2)If this p-p value is captured for million UIs, we will have a set of 
Min/Mean/Max value. What this spec corresponds to? Does it correspond to Min or 
Mean Value?

The spec doesn;t give any clarity about these questions.



Thanks for your response.

Rajeev
