Hello, I am validating chip-chip pcie gen 1 interface.My design has pcie link between CPU<-->ASIC and CPU<-->FPGA.I set constant clock as my recovery clock in my TEK scope and eye was good when ASIC and FPGA driving my CPU.Whereas, eye was bad and too much jitter was observed at RX when CPU driving other two devices.I changed my clock from constant mean to PLL ( 1.5 Mhz bandwidth as specified in the pcie spec) and got same output(eye was good) when ASIC and FPGA driving , interestingly eye was good at this time when CPU driving other two devices.Everything seems okay when PLL was chosen as my recovery clock.I know clock should be PLL for pcie compliance testing (min 1.5 Mhz BW) as mentioned in the pcie specification.My question is why eye was good when other two devices driving my CPU in both the cases,whereas my eye was bad when constant clock was chosen and it was good when PLL was selected.
