Notes
Figure 8.2 Hot-Plug with Switch on Add-In Card Application
Figure 8.3 Hot-Plug with Carrier Card Application
The PCI Express Base Specification revision 1.1 allowed a hot-plug attention indicator, power indicator,
and attention button to be located on the board on which the slot is implemented or on the add-in board.
When located on the add-in board, state changes are communicated between the hot-plug controller asso-
ciated with the slot and the add-in card via hot-plug messages. This capability was removed in revision 1.1
of the PCI Express Base Specification and is not supported in the PES24N3A.
