PRODUCTION DATA
The DS160PR421 is a four channel linear redriver with ingrated multiplexer (mux). The low-power high-performance linear repeater or redriver is designed to support PCIe 1.0/2.0/3.0/4.0. The device is a protocol agnostic linear redriver that can operate for interfaces up to 16 Gbps.
The DS160PR421 can be configured two different ways:
Pin Mode – device control configuration is done solely by strap pins. Pin mode is expected to be good enough for many system implementation needs.
SMBus/I2C Slave Mode - provides most flexibility. Requires a SMBus/I2C master device to configure DS160PR421 though writing to its slave address.
