Functional Description
3.1 Overview
This chapter describes the functional blocks of the PCIE-6002 card. The PCIE-6002
provides four M.2 card sockets, each accept a PCIe x4 solid state drive for use by any
processor installed in the system using the MaxCore’s PCIe Switch. The PCIE-6002
payload card connects four M.2 sockets, each with a dedicated four-lane PCIe Gen 3
interface, to a PCIe switch.
In case of a MaxCore platform, the switch in turn connects to the MaxCore backplane or
server CPU through two four-lane PCIe Gen 3 interfaces. In the MaxCore platform the
backplane can then be configured to connect individual sockets to microserver CPUs using
any Gen 3 x8 PCIe slot. In a server application 1,2, or 4 M.2 AHCI or NVMe SSD modules
can be connected to the host CPU.
The following figure depicts the functional block diagram of PCIE-6002 card.
3.2 Power
Both 3.3V and 12V power are provided to the PCIE-6002 through the PCIe gold fingers
(through the +3.3V Aux and +12V rails respectively).
