The redrivers are configured to operate in Pin Mode (MODE pins tied to L0).
  1. RX_Detect state machine of all redrivers is enabled by leaving RX_DET pin open.
  2. The redrivers are enabled (PWDN pins tied to GND).
  3. The board is configured for any PCIe bus width.
  4. DC Gain of all redrivers is set to 0 dB by leaving the GAIN config pin open for the redrivers.
  5. EQ level of the RX CTLEs of all redrivers is set to 7 dB at 8 GHz by default.
  6. If necessary, adjust EQ levels of the downstream and upstream redrivers, or both, by arranging shunts on JMP1, JMP2 for downstream redrivers and JMP11 and JMP14 for the upstream redrivers.
  7. Plug the EVM into a PCIe x16 server motherboard slot. Ensure the motherboard is powered down before installing the EVM or configured for hot-plug operation.
  8. Install a compatible PCIe endpoint card into one of the PCIe connectors on the EVM based on configuration of the SEL pin. Note: PCIe-A requires enabling bifurcation on the motherboard.
  9. Power-up the motherboard.
