: PCIe Power-on Timing Requirements of the Module
The following principles of PCIe interface design should be complied with, so as to meet PCIe
specification.
⚫
Keep the PCIe data and control signals away from sensitive circuits and signals, such as RF, audio,
crystal and oscillator signals.
⚫
Add a capacitor in series on Tx/Rx traces to prevent any DC bias.
⚫
Keep the maximum trace length less than 300 mm.
⚫
Keep the length matching of each differential data pair (Tx/Rx) less than 0.7 mm for PCIe routing
traces.
