2.6.2
Clocking - Jitter Attenuator
The ICS874001AGI-02LF (U9) is a high performance Differential-to-LVDS Jitter
Attenuator designed for use in PCI Express systems.
2.6.3
PCI Express Circuit
High-speed LVDS traces connect the PCI Express Edge Connector (P1) directly to the
GTX Transceivers on the FPGA (U6). AC-Coupling Capacitors, in the transmit
direction, ensure blocking of DC currents as specified by the
PCI Express Card
Electromechanical Specification Rev 2.0
