Product Description
With Non-Transparent Bridging functionality and innovative Switch
Partitioning feature, the PES24NT6AG2 allows true multi-host or multi-
processor communications in a single device. Integrated DMA control-
lers enable high-performance system design by off-loading data transfer
operations across memories from the processors. Each lane is capable
of 5 GT/s link speed in both directions and is fully compliant with PCI
Express Base Specification 2.1.
A non-transparent bridge (NTB) is required when two PCI Express
domains need to communicate to each other. The main function of the
NTB block is to initialize and translate addresses and device IDs to
allow data exchange across PCI Express domains. The major function-
alities of the NTB block are summarized in
Table 1.

Description
Each device can be configured to have up to 8 NTB functions and can support up to 8 CPUs/roots.
Each device can have up to 64 masters ID for address and ID translations.
Each NT port has six BARs, where each BAR opening an NT window to another domain.
Lookup-table translation divides the BAR aperture into up to 24 segments, where each segment
has independent translation programming and is associated with an entry in a look-up table.
Doorbell register is used for event signaling between domains, where an outbound doorbell bit
sets a corresponding bit at the inbound doorbell in the other domain.
Message registers allow mailbox message passing between domains -- message placed in the
inbound register will be seen at the outbound register at the other domain.

SMBus Interface
The PES24NT6AG2 contains two SMBus interfaces. The slave interface provides full access to the configuration registers in the PES24NT6AG2,
allowing every configuration register in the device to be read or written by an external agent. The master interface allows the default configuration
register values of the PES24NT6AG2 to be overridden following a reset with values programmed in an external serial EEPROM. The master interface
is also used by an external Hot-Plug I/O expander.

December 17, 2013
IDT 89HPES24NT6AG2 Datasheet
Each of the two SMBus interfaces contain an SMBus clock pin and an SMBus data pin. In addition, the slave SMBus has SSMBADDR1 and
SSMBADDR2 pins. As shown in
Figure 2,
the master and slave SMBuses may only be used in a split configuration. In the split configuration, the
master and slave SMBuses operate as two independent buses; thus, multi-master arbitration is not required. The SMBus master interface does not
support SMBus arbitration. As a result, the switch’s SMBus master must be the only master in the SMBus lines that connect to the serial EEPROM
and I/O expander slaves.

Hot-Plug Interface
The PES24NT6AG2 supports PCI Express Hot-Plug on each downstream port. To reduce the number of pins required on the device, the
PES24NT6AG2 utilizes an external I/O expander, such as that used on PC motherboards, connected to the SMBus master interface. Following reset
and configuration, whenever the state of a Hot-Plug output needs to be modified, the PES24NT6AG2 generates an SMBus transaction to the I/O
expander with the new value of all of the outputs. Whenever a Hot-Plug input changes, the I/O expander generates an interrupt which is received on
the IOEXPINTN input pin (alternate function of GPIO) of the PES24NT6AG2. In response to an I/O expander interrupt, the PES24NT6AG2 generates
an SMBus transaction to read the state of all of the Hot-Plug inputs from the I/O expander.
General Purpose Input/Output
The PES24NT6AG2 provides 9 General Purpose I/O (GPIO) pins that may be individually configured as general purpose inputs, general purpose
outputs, or alternate functions. All GPIO pins are shared with other on-chip functions. These alternate functions may be enabled via software, SMBus
slave interface, or serial configuration EEPROM.
Pin Description
The following tables list the functions of the pins provided on the PES24NT6AG2. Some of the functions listed may be multiplexed onto the same
pin. The active polarity of a signal is defined using a suffix. Signals ending with an “N” are defined as being active, or asserted, when at a logic zero
(low) level. All other signals (including clocks, buses, and select lines) will be interpreted as being active, or asserted, when at a logic one (high) level.
Differential signals end with a suffix “N” or “P.” The differential signal ending in “P” is the positive portion of the differential pair and the differential signal
ending in “N” is the negative portion of the differential pair.
Note:
Pin [x] of a port refers to a lane. For port 0, PE00RN[0] refers to lane 0, PE00RN[1] refers to lane 1, etc.

clock is used as the reference clock by on-chip PLLs to generate the clocks
required for the system logic. The frequency of the differential reference

Note: Both pairs of the Global Reference Clocks must be connected to and
derived from the same clock source. Refer to the Overview section of
Chapter 2 in the PES24NT6AG2 User Manual for additional details.
