Renesas Electronics Corporation Interface - Specialized TSI382-66IL

The TSI382-66IL is a specialized evaluation board designed for the Tsi382 PCIe-to-PCI bridge, featuring a single x1 lane PCIe interface with a data rate of 2.5 Gbps. It is compliant with the PCI Express Specification (Revision 1.1) and includes four 32-bit PCI slots that support 25,Äì66 MHz operation. The board allows for the connection of 3.3V or Universal PCI adapter cards, enabling developers to prototype and evaluate designs that bridge PCI to PCIe. The evaluation board is equipped with a serial EEPROM for programming optimized settings and supports both manual and auto-detection of PCI bus clock frequencies. It also features overcurrent protection and can be powered through a system or external ATX supply. The TsiView software tool is available for Windows, providing access to device register settings and facilitating the programming of the on-board EEPROM. This product is suitable for engineers looking to test and tune the performance of PCI adapter cards in a PCIe environment, making it a valuable tool for hardware development and application design.
