PES32NT24xG2 Device
Overview
Overview
The 89HPES32NT24xG2 is a member of the IDT family of PCI Express® switching solutions. The
PES32NT24xG2 is a 32-lane, 24-port system interconnect switch optimized for PCI Express Gen2 packet
switching in high-performance applications, supporting multiple simultaneous peer-to-peer traffic flows.
Target applications include multi-host or intelligent I/O based systems where inter-domain communication is
required, such as servers, storage, communications, and embedded systems.
With Non-Transparent Bridging functionality and innovative Switch Partitioning feature, the
PES32NT24xG2 allows true multi-host or multi-processor communications in a single device. Integrated
DMA controllers 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.
Note: The part number PES32NT24xG2 covers two distinct switch devices: the PES32NT24AG2 and
the PES32NT24BG2. The information in this manual applies equally to both devices except where
noted in occasional notes and footnotes in various chapters. The differences between the two
devices are summarized as follows:
• Port clocking: the PES32NT24AG2 supports port clocking on ports 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16,and 20.
The PES32NT24BG2 supports port clocking on ports 0, 2, and 4 only.
• Slave SMBus address pins: The PES32NT24AG2 has 2 address pins while the
PES32NT24BG2 has only one pin.
System Identification
Vendor ID
All vendor IDs in the device are hardwired to 0x111D which corresponds to Integrated Device Tech-
nology, Inc.
Device ID
The PES32NT24xG2 device ID is shown in Table 1.1.
Revision ID
The revision ID in the PES32NT24xG2 is set to the same value in all mode. The value of the revision ID
is determined in one place and is easily modified during a metal mask change. The revision ID will start at
0x0 and will be incremented with each all-layer or metal mask change.
