DS160PT801 8-Lane (16-Channel) Retimers

Texas Instruments DS160PT801 8-Lane (16-Channel) Retimers are high-performance PCI-Express protocol-aware retimers that support PCIe data rates up to 16GT/s. The 8 lanes can be bifurcated into two x4 links to support different system topologies. These retimers also support common clocks and separate reference clocks without Spread Spectrum Clocking (SSC) and reference clocks with SSC. The DS160PT801 retimers are configurable through the SMBus, and the initial configuration can be loaded from the external EEPROM. These retimers are compatible with the standard 1mm BGA PCB manufacturing and come in a small 8.50mm x 13.40mm BGA package.
