24-Lane 6-Port
PCI Express® Switch
89HPES24T6
Product Brief
Device Overview
The 89HPES24T6 is a member of the IDT PRECISE™ family of PCI
Express® switching solutions. The PES24T6 is a 24-lane, 6-port periph-
eral chip that performs PCI Express Packet switching with a feature set
optimized for high performance applications such as servers, storage,
and communications/networking. It provides connectivity and switching
functions between a PCI Express upstream port and up to five down-
stream ports and supports switching between downstream ports.

– Downstream ports configurable up to x8
– Low-latency cut-through switch architecture
– Support for Max Payload Size up to 2048 bytes
– One virtual channel
– Eight traffic classes
– PCI Express Base Specification Revision 1.1 compliant
◆
Flexible Architecture with Numerous Configuration Options
– Automatic per port link width negotiation to x8, x4, x2 or x1
– Automatic lane reversal on all ports
– Automatic polarity inversion on all lanes

◆
Highly Integrated Solution
– Requires no external components
– Incorporates on-chip internal memory for packet buffering and
queueing
– Integrates twenty-four 2.5 Gbps embedded SerDes with 8B/
10B encoder/decoder (no separate transceivers needed)
◆
Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability (RAS) Features
– Supports ECRC and Advanced Error Reporting
– Internal end-to-end parity protection on all TLPs ensures data
integrity even in systems that do not implement end-to-end
CRC (ECRC)
– Supports PCI Express Native Hot-Plug, Hot-Swap capable I/O
– Compatible with Hot-Plug I/O expanders used on PC and
server motherboards
◆
Power Management
– Utilizes advanced low-power design techniques to achieve low
typical power consumption
– Supports PCI Power Management Interface specification
(PCI-PM 1.1)
• Supports device power management states: D0, D3
hot
and
D3
cold
– Unused SerDes are disabled

Product Description
Utilizing standard PCI Express interconnect, the PES24T6 provides
the most efficient fan-out solution for applications requiring high
throughput, low latency, and simple board layout with a minimum
number of board layers. It provides 12 GBps (96 Gbps) of aggregated,
full-duplex switching capacity through 24 integrated serial lanes, using
proven and robust IDT technology. Each lane provides 2.5 Gbps of
bandwidth in both directions and is fully compliant with PCI Express
Base specification 1.1.
The PES24T6 is based on a flexible and efficient layered architec-
ture. The PCI Express layers consist of SerDes, Physical, Data Link and
Transaction layers. The PES24T6 can operate either as a store and
forward or cut-through switch and is designed to switch memory and I/O
transactions. It supports eight Traffic Classes (TCs) and one Virtual
Channel (VC) with sophisticated resource management to enable effi-
cient switching and I/O connectivity.
