General Description

The Realtek RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB Gigabit Ethernet controllers combine a triple-speed IEEE
802.3 compliant Media Access Controller (MAC) with a triple-speed Ethernet transceiver, PCI Express
bus controller, and embedded memory. With state-of-the-art DSP technology and mixed-mode signal
technology, the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB offers high-speed transmission over CAT 5 UTP cable
or CAT 3 UTP (10Mbps only) cable. Functions such as Crossover Detection and Auto-Correction,
polarity correction, adaptive equalization, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, timing recovery, and
error correction are implemented to provide robust transmission and reception capability at high speeds.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB complies with the IEEE 802.3u specification for 10/100Mbps
Ethernet and the IEEE 802.3ab specification for 1000Mbps Ethernet. It also supports an auxiliary power
auto-detect function, and will auto-configure related bits of the PCI power management registers in PCI
configuration space.
Advanced Configuration Power management Interface (ACPI)—power management for modern
operating systems that are capable of Operating System-directed Power Management (OSPM)—is
supported to achieve the most efficient power management possible. PCI MSI (Message Signaled
Interrupt) and MSI-X are also supported.
In addition to the ACPI feature, remote wake-up (including AMD Magic Packet™ and Microsoft®
Wake-up frame) is supported in both ACPI and APM (Advanced Power Management) environments. To
support WOL from a deep power down state (e.g., D3cold, i.e., main power is off and only auxiliary
exists), the auxiliary power source must be able to provide the needed power for the
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is fully compliant with Microsoft® NDIS5, NDIS6(IPv4, IPv6,
TCP, UDP) Checksum and Segmentation Task-offload (Large send and Giant send) features, and
supports IEEE 802 IP Layer 2 priority encoding and IEEE 802.1Q Virtual bridged Local Area Network
(VLAN). The above features contribute to lowering CPU utilization, especially benefiting performance
when in operation on a network server.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports Receive Side Scaling (RSS) to hash incoming TCP
connections and load-balance received data processing across multiple CPUs. RSS improves the number
of transactions per second and number of connections per second, for increased network throughput.
The device also features inter-connect PCI Express technology. PCI Express is a high-bandwidth, low pin
count, serial, interconnect technology that offers significant improvements in performance over
conventional PCI and also maintains software compatibility with existing PCI infrastructure. The device
embeds an adaptive equalizer in the PCIe PHY for ease of system integration and excellent link quality.
The equalizer enables the length of the PCB traces to reach 40 inches.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is suitable for multiple market segments and emerging
applications, such as desktop, mobile, workstation, server, communications platforms, and embedded
applications.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports the Deep Slumber Mode (DSM) power saving feature.
See the separate DSM application notes for details.

Functional Description

6.1. PCI Express Bus Interface
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is compliant with PCI Express Base Specification Revision 1.1,
and runs at a 2.5GHz signaling rate with X1 link width, i.e., one transmit and one receive differential pair.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports four types of PCI Express messages: interrupt messages,
error messages, power management messages, and hot-plug messages. To ease PCB layout constraints,
PCI Express lane polarity reversal and link reversal are also supported.

6.1.1.

PCI Express Transmitter

The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB’s PCI Express block receives digital data from the Ethernet
interface and performs data scrambling with Linear Feedback Shift Register (LFSR) and 8B/10B coding
technology into 10-bit code groups. Data scrambling is used to reduce the possibility of electrical
resonance on the link, and 8B/10B coding technology is used to benefit embedded clocking, error
detection, and DC balance by adding an overhead to the system through the addition of 2 extra bits. The
data code groups are passed through its serializer for packet framing. The generated 2.5Gbps serial data is
transmitted onto the PCB trace to its upstream device via a differential driver.

6.1.2.

PCI Express Receiver

The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB’s PCI Express block receives 2.5Gbps serial data from its
upstream device to generate parallel data. The receiver’s PLL circuits are re-synchronized to maintain bit
and symbol lock. Through 8B/10B decoding technology and data de-scrambling, the original digital data
is recovered and passed to the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB’s internal Ethernet MAC to be
transmitted onto the Ethernet media.

6.2. LED Functions
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports four LED signals in four different configurable operation
modes. The following sections describe the various LED actions.

6.2.1.

Link Monitor

The Link Monitor senses link integrity, such as LINK10, LINK100, LINK1000, LINK10/100/1000,
LINK10/ACT, LINK100/ACT, or LINK1000/ACT. Whenever link status is established, the specific link
LED pin is driven low. Once a cable is disconnected, the link LED pin is driven high, indicating that no
network connection exists.

Deep Slumber Mode (DSM) V1 & V2

The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports Link Down power saving mode via communication with
the BIOS and external circuitry. Note that DSMv2 is a simplified implementation of DSMv1, and is only
supported in the RTL8111D(L)-VB. Refer to the separate DSM application note for details.

6.2.7.

Customizable LED Configuration

The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports customizable LED operation modes via IO register offset

2. Configure IO register offset 18h~19h to support your own LED signals. For example, if the value in the
IO offset 0x18 is 0x8C51h (1000110010100001b), the LED actions are:
•

6.3. PHY Transceiver
6.3.1.

PHY Transmitter

Based on state-of-the-art DSP technology and mixed-mode signal processing technology, the
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB operates at 10/100/1000Mbps over standard CAT.5 UTP cable
(100/1000Mbps), and CAT.3 UTP cable (10Mbps).
GMII (1000Mbps) Mode
The RTL8111D/RTL8111D-VB’s PCS layer receives data bytes from the MAC through the GMII
interface and performs the generation of continuous code-groups through 4D-PAM5 coding technology.
These code groups are passed through a waveform-shaping filter to minimize EMI effects, and are
transmitted onto the 4-pair CAT5 cable at 125MBaud/s through a D/A converter.
MII (100Mbps) Mode
The transmitted 4-bit nibbles (TXD[3:0]) from the MAC, clocked at 25MHz (TXC), are converted into
5B symbol code through 4B/5B coding technology, then through scrambling and serializing, are
converted to 125Mhz NRZ and NRZI signals. After that, the NRZI signals are passed to the MLT3
encoder, then to the D/A converter and transmitted onto the media.
MII (10Mbps) Mode
The transmitted 4-bit nibbles (TXD[3:0]) from the MAC, clocked at 2.5MHz (TXC), are serialized into
10Mbps serial data. The 10Mbps serial data is converted into a Manchester-encoded data stream and is
transmitted onto the media by the D/A converter.

6.3.2.

PHY Receiver

GMII (1000Mbps) Mode
Input signals from the media pass through the sophisticated on-chip hybrid circuit to separate the
transmitted signal from the input signal for effective reduction of near-end echo. Afterwards, the received
signal is processed with state-of-the-art technology, e.g., adaptive equalization, BLW (Baseline Wander)
correction, cross-talk cancellation, echo cancellation, timing recovery, error correction, and 4D-PAM5
decoding. Then, the 8-bit-wide data is recovered and is sent to the GMII interface at a clock speed of
125MHz. The Rx MAC retrieves the packet data from the receive MII/GMII interface and sends it to the
Rx Buffer Manager.
MII (100Mbps) Mode
The MLT3 signal is processed with an ADC, equalizer, BLW (Baseline Wander) correction, timing
recovery, MLT3 and NRZI decoder, descrambler, 4B/5B decoder, and is then presented to the MII
interface in 4-bit-wide nibbles at a clock speed of 25MHz.
MII (10Mbps) Mode
The received differential signal is converted into a Manchester-encoded stream first. Next, the stream is
processed with a Manchester decoder and is de-serialized into 4-bit-wide nibbles. The 4-bit nibbles are
presented to the MII interface at a clock speed of 2.5MHz.

6.4. Next Page
If 1000Base-T mode is advertised, three additional Next Pages are automatically exchanged between the
two link partners. Users can set PHY Reg4.15 to 1 to manually exchange extra Next Pages via Reg7 and
Reg8 as defined in IEEE 802.3ab.

6.5. EEPROM Interface
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB requires the attachment of an external EEPROM. The
93C46/93C56 is a 1K-bit/2K-bit EEPROM. The EEPROM interface permits the
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB to read from, and write data to, an external serial EEPROM device.
Values in the external EEPROM allow default fields in PCI configuration space and I/O space to be
overridden following a power-on or software EEPROM auto-load command. The
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB will auto-load values from the EEPROM. If the EEPROM is not
present, the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB initialization uses default values for the appropriate
Configuration and Operational Registers. Software can read and write to the EEPROM using bit-bang
accesses via the 9346CR Register, or using PCI VPD (Vital Product Data). The interface consists of
EESK, EECS, EEDO, and EEDI.
The correct EEPROM (i.e., 93C46/93C56) must be used in order to ensure proper LAN function.

6.6. Power Management
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB complies with ACPI (Rev 1.0, 1.0b, 2.0), PCI Power Management
(Rev 1.1), PCI Express Active State Power Management (ASPM), and Network Device Class Power
Management Reference Specification (V1.0a), such as to support an Operating System-directed Power
Management (OSPM) environment.
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB can monitor the network for a Wakeup Frame, a Magic Packet,
and notify the system via a PCI Express Power Management Event (PME) Message, Beacon, or
LANWAKEB pin when such a packet or event occurs. Then the system can be restored to a normal state
to process incoming jobs.
When the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is in power down mode (D1 ~ D3):
•

The Rx state machine is stopped. The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB monitors the network for
wakeup events such as a Magic Packet and Wakeup Frame in order to wake up the system. When in
power down mode, the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB will not reflect the status of any incoming
packets in the ISR register and will not receive any packets into the Rx on-chip buffer.

•

The on-chip buffer status and packets that have already been received into the Rx on-chip buffer
before entering power down mode are held by the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB.

•

Transmission is stopped. PCI Express transactions are stopped. The Tx on-chip buffer is held.

•

After being restored to D0 state, the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB transmits data that was not
moved into the Tx on-chip buffer during power down mode. Packets that were not transmitted
completely last time are re-transmitted.

The D3cold_support_PME bit (bit15, PMC register) and the Aux_I_b2:0 bits (bit8:6, PMC register) in PCI
configuration space depend on the existence of Aux power. If aux. power is absent, the above 4 bits are
all 0 in binary.
Example:
If EEPROM D3c_support_PME = 1:
•

If aux. power exists, then PMC in PCI config space is the same as EEPROM PMC
(if EEPROM PMC = C3 FF, then PCI PMC = C3 FF)

•

If aux. power is absent, then PMC in PCI config space is the same as EEPROM PMC except the
above 4 bits are all 0’s (if EEPROM PMC = C3 FF, then PCI PMC = 03 7E)

In the above case, if wakeup support is desired when main power is off, it is suggested that the EEPROM
PMC be set to C3 FF (Realtek EEPROM default value).

If EEPROM D3c_support_PME = 0:
•

If aux. power exists, then PMC in PCI config space is the same as EEPROM PMC
(if EEPROM PMC = C3 7F, then PCI PMC = C3 7F)

•

If aux. power is absent, then PMC in PCI config space is the same as EEPROM PMC except the
above 4 bits are all 0’s (if EEPROM PMC = C3 7F, then PCI PMC = 03 7E)

In the above case, if wakeup support is not desired when main power is off, it is suggested that the
EEPROM PMC be set to 03 7E.
Magic Packet Wakeup occurs only when the following conditions are met:
•

The destination address of the received Magic Packet is acceptable to the
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB, e.g., a broadcast, multicast, or unicast packet addressed to the
current RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB.

•

The received Magic Packet does not contain a CRC error.

•

The Magic bit (CONFIG3#5) is set to 1, the PMEn bit (CONFIG1#0) is set to 1, and the
corresponding wake-up method (message, beacon, or LANWAKEB) can be asserted in the current
power state.

•

The Magic Packet pattern matches, i.e., 6 * FFh + MISC (can be none) + 16 * DID (Destination ID)
in any part of a valid Ethernet packet.

A Wakeup Frame event occurs only when the following conditions are met:
•

The destination address of the received Wakeup Frame is acceptable to the
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB, e.g., a broadcast, multicast, or unicast address to the current
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB.

•

The received Wakeup Frame does not contain a CRC error.

•

The PMEn bit (CONFIG1#0) is set to 1.

•

The 16-bit CRCA of the received Wakeup Frame matches the 16-bit CRC of the sample Wakeup
Frame pattern given by the local machine’s OS. Or, the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is
configured to allow direct packet wakeup, e.g., a broadcast, multicast, or unicast network packet.

Note: 16-bit CRC: The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB supports eight long wakeup frames (covering 128
mask bytes from offset 0 to 127 of any incoming network packet).

Rev. 1.6

RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB
Datasheet
The corresponding wake-up method (message or LANWAKEB) is asserted only when the following
conditions are met:
•

The PMEn bit (bit0, CONFIG1) is set to 1.

•

The PME_En bit (bit8, PMCSR) in PCI Configuration Space is set to 1.

•

The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB may assert the corresponding wake-up method (message or
LANWAKEB) in the current power state or in isolation state, depending on the PME_Support
(bit15-11) setting of the PMC register in PCI Configuration Space.

•

A Magic Packet, LinkUp, or Wakeup Frame has been received.

•

Writing a 1 to the PME_Status (bit15) of the PMCSR register in the PCI Configuration Space clears
this bit and causes the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB to stop asserting the corresponding wake-up
method (message or LANWAKEB) (if enabled).

When the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is in power down mode, e.g., D1-D3, the IO and MEM
accesses to the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB are disabled. After a PERSTB assertion, the device’s
power state is restored to D0 automatically if the original power state was D3cold. There is almost no
hardware delay at the device’s power state transition. When in ACPI mode, the device does not support
PME (Power Management Enable) from D0 (this is the Realtek default setting of the PMC register
auto-loaded from EEPROM). The setting may be changed from the EEPROM, if required.

6.7. Vital Product Data (VPD)
Bit 31 of the Vital Product Data (VPD) capability structure in the RTL8111D/RTL8111D-VB’s PCI
Configuration Space is used to issue VPD read/write commands and is also a flag used to indicate
whether the transfer of data between the VPD data register and the 93C46/93C56 has completed or not.
Write VPD register: (write data to the 93C46/93C56)
Set the flag bit to 1 at the same time the VPD address is written to write VPD data to EEPROM. When
the flag bit is reset to 0 by the RTL8111D/RTL8111D-VB, the VPD data (4 bytes per VPD access) has
been transferred from the VPD data register to EEPROM.
Read VPD register: (read data from the 93C46/93C56
Reset the flag bit to 0 at the same time the VPD address is written to retrieve VPD data from EEPROM.
When the flag bit is set to 1 by the RTL8111D/RTL8111D-VB, the VPD data (4 bytes per VPD access)
has been transferred from EEPROM to the VPD data register.
Note1: Refer to the PCI 2.3 Specifications for further information.
Note2: The VPD address must be a DWORD-aligned address as defined in the PCI 2.3 Specifications.
VPD data is always consecutive 4-byte data starting from the VPD address specified.
Note3: Realtek reserves offset 60h to 7Fh in EEPROM mainly for VPD data to be stored.
Note4: The VPD function of the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is designed to be able to access the full
range of the 93C46/93C56 EEPROM.

6.8. Receive-Side Scaling (RSS)
The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB is compliant with the new Network Driver Interface Specification
(NDIS) 6.0 Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) technology for the Microsoft Windows family of operating
systems. RSS allows packet receive-processing from a network adapter to be balanced across the number
of available computer processors, increasing performance on multi CPU platforms.

6.8.1.

Receive-Side Scaling (RSS) Initialization

During
RSS
initialization,
the
Windows
operating
system
will
inform
the
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB to store the following parameters: hash function, hash type, hash bits,
indirection table, BaseCPUNumber, and the secret hash key.
Hash Function
The default hash function is the Toeplitz hash function.
Hash Type
The hash types indicate which field of the packet needs to be hashed to get the hash result. There are
several combinations of these fields, mainly, TCP/IPv4, IPv4, TCP/IPv6, IPv6, and IPv6 extension
headers.
•

TCP/IPv4 requires hash calculations over the IPv4 source address, the IPv4 destination address, the
source TCP port and the destination TCP port.

•

IPv4 requires hash calculations over the IPv4 source address and the IPv4 destination address.

•

TCP/IPv6 requires hash calculations over the IPv6 source address, the IPv6 destination address, the
source TCP port and the destination TCP port.

•

IPv6 requires hash calculations over the IPv6 source address and the IPv6 destination address
(Note: The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB does not support the IPv6 extension header hash type in
RSS).

Hash Bits
Hash bits are used to index the hash result into the indirection table
Indirection Table
The Indirection Table stores values that are added to the BaseCPUNumber to enable RSS interrupts to be
restricted from some CPUs. The OS will update the Indirection Table to rebalance the load.
BaseCPUNumber
The lowest number CPU to use for RSS. BaseCPUNumber is added to the result of the indirection table
lookup.
Secret hash key
The key used in the Toeplitz function. For different hash types, the key size is different.

6.8.2.

RSS Operation

After the parameters are set, the RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB will start hash calculation on each
incoming packet and forward each packet to its correct queue according to the hash result. If the incoming
packet is not in the hash type, it will be forwarded to the primary queue. The hash result plus the
BaseCPUNumber will be indexed into the indirection table to get the correct CPU number. The
RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB uses three methods to inform the system of incoming packets: inline
interrupt, MSI, and MSIX. Periodically the OS will update the indirection table to rebalance the load
across the CPUs.

7.

Switching Regulator

The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB incorporates a state-of-the-art switching regulator that requires a
well-designed PCB layout in order to achieve good power efficiency and lower the output voltage ripple
and input overshoot.

7.1. PCB Layout
•

The input 3.3V power trace connected to the VDDSR pin should be wider than 40mils.

•

The bulk de-coupling capacitors (C82 and C83) should be placed within 200mils (0.5cm) of the
VDDSR pin to prevent input voltage overshoot.

•

The output power trace out of the SROUT12 pin should be wider than 60mils.

•

Keep L20 within 200mils (0.5cm) of the SROUT12 pin.

•

Keep C18 and C19 within 200mils (0.5cm) of L20 to ensure stable output power and better power
efficiency.

•

Both C18 and C82 are strongly recommended to be ceramic capacitors.

Note: Violation of the above rules will damage the IC.

Note 1: The ESR is equivalent to RDC or DCR. Lower ESR inductor values will promote a higher efficiency switching
regulator.
Note 2: The power inductor used by the switching regulator should be able to withstand 600mA of current.
Note 3: Typically, if the power inductor’s ESR at 1MHz is below 0.8Ω, the switching regulator efficiency will be above
75%. However the actual switching regulator efficiency should be measured according to the method described in section
7.5 Efficiency Measurement, page 26.

7.3. Measurement Criteria
In order for the switching regulator to operate properly, the input and output voltage measurement criteria
must be met. From the input side, the voltage overshoot cannot exceed 4V; otherwise the chip may be
damaged. Note that the voltage signal must be measured directly at the VDDSR pin, not at the capacitor.
In order to reduce the input voltage overshoot, the C82 and C83 must be placed close to the VDDSR pin.
The following figures show what a good input voltage and a bad one look like.

From the output side measured at the SROUT12 pin, the voltage ripple must be within 100mV. Choosing
different types and values of output capacitor (C18, C19) and power inductor (L20) will seriously affect
the efficiency and output voltage ripple of switching regulators. The following figures show the effects of
different types of capacitors on the switching regulator’s output voltage.
The blue square wave signal (top row) is measured at the output the SROUT12 pin before the power
inductor (L20). The yellow signal (second row) is measured after the power inductor (L20), and shows
there is a voltage ripple. The green signal (lower row) is the current. Data in the following figures was
measured at gigabit speed.

A ceramic 22µF (X5R) will have a lower voltage ripple compared to the electrolytic 100µF. The key to
choosing a proper output capacitor is to choose the lowest ESR to reduce the output voltage ripple.
Choosing a ceramic 22µF 0805 (Y5V) in this case will cause malfunction of the switching regulator.
Placing several Electrolytic capacitors in parallel will help lower the output voltage ripple.

The following figures show how different inductors affect the SROUT12 pin output waveform. The
typical waveform should look like Figure 13, which has a square waveform with a dip at the falling edge
and the rising edge. If the inductor is not carefully chosen, the waveform may look like Figure 14, where
the waveform looks like a distorted square. This will cause insufficient current supply and will undermine
the stability of the system at gigabit speed. Data in the following figures was measured at gigabit speed.

7.4. Typical Switching Regulator PCB Layout
The typical layout of Figure 15 and Figure 16 are similar. The trace from RSET should pass through a via
to the lower layer, and the trace should be protected by a ground trace. The width of the ground trace
should be more than 5 mils.

7.5. Efficiency Measurement
The efficiency of the switching regulator is designed to be above 75% in gigabit traffic mode. It is very
important to choose a suitable inductor before Gerber certification, as the Inductor ESR value will affect
the efficiency of the switching regulator. An inductor with a lower ESR value will result in a higher
efficiency switching regulator.
The efficiency of the switching regulator is easily measured using the following method.
Figure 17 shows two checkpoints, checkpoint A (CP_A) and checkpoint B (CP_B). The switching
regulator input current (Icpa) should be measured at CP_A, and the switching regulator output current
(Icpb) should be measured at CP_B.
To determine efficiency, apply the following formula:
Efficiency = Vcpb*Icpb / Vcpa*Icpa
Where Vcpb is 1.05V; Vcpa is 3.3V. The measurements should be performed in gigabit traffic mode.
For example: The inductor used in the evaluation board is a GOTREND GTSD32-4R7M:
•

The ESR value @ 1MHz is approximately 0.712ohm

•

The measured Icpa is 101mA at CP_A

•

The measured Icpb is 263mA at CP_B

These values are measured in gigabit traffic mode, so the efficiency of the GOTREND GTSD32-4R7M
can be calculated as follows:
Efficiency = (1.05V*263mA) / (3.3V*101mA) = 0.823 = 82.3%.
We strongly recommend that when choosing an inductor for the switching regulator, the efficiency should
be measured, and that the inductor should yield an efficiency rating higher than 75%. If the efficiency
does not meet this requirement, there may be risk to the switching regulator reliability in the long run.

Note 1: The RTL8111D(L)/RTL8111D(L)-VB does not support fast 3.3V rising. The 3.3V rise time must be controlled over
1ms. If the rise time is too short it will induce a peak voltage in PIN63, which may cause permanent damage to the
switching regulator.
Note 2: If there is any action that involves consecutive ON/OFF toggling of the switching-regulator source (3.3V), the
design must makes sure the OFF state of both the switching-regulator source (3.3V) and output (1.05V) reach 0V, and the
time period between the consecutive ON/OFF toggling action must be longer than 200ms.

Note1: Measurement taken from single-ended waveform.
Note2: Measurement taken from differential waveform.
Note3: Measured from -150mV to +150mV on the differential waveform (derived from REFCLK+ minus REFCLK-). The
signal must be monotonic through the measurement region for rise and fall time. The 300mV measurement window is
centered on the differential zero crossing. See Figure 23, page 35.
Note4: Measured at crossing point where the instantaneous voltage value of the rising edge of REFCLK+ equals the
falling edge of REFCLK-. See Figure 20, page 34.
Note5: Refers to the total variation from the lowest crossing point to the highest, regardless of which edge is crossing.
Refers to all crossing points for this measurement. See Figure 20, page 34.
Note6: Defines as the absolute minimum or maximum instantaneous period. This includes cycle to cycle jitter, relative
ppm tolerance, and spread spectrum modulation. See Figure 22, page 34.
Note7: Defined as the maximum instantaneous voltage including overshoot. See Figure 20, page 34.
Note8: Defined as the minimum instantaneous voltage including undershoot. See Figure 20, page 34.
Note9: Defined as the total variation of all crossing voltages of Rising REFCLK+ and Falling REFCLK-. This is the
maximum allowed variance in VCROSS for any particular system. See Figure 20, page 34.
Note10: Refer to Section 4.3.2.1 of the PCI Express Base Specification, Revision 1.1 for information regarding ppm
considerations.
Note11: System board compliance measurements must use the test load card described in Figure 26, page 36. REFCLK+
and REFCLK- are to be measured at the load capacitors CL. Single ended probes must be used for measurements
requiring single ended measurements. Either single ended probes with math or differential probe can be used for
differential measurements. Test load CL=2pF.
Note12: TSTABLE is the time the differential clock must maintain a minimum ±150mV differential voltage after rising/falling
edges before it is allowed to droop back into the VRB ±100mV differential range. See Figure 25, page 35.
Note13: PPM refers to parts per million and is a DC absolute period accuracy specification. 1ppm is 1/1,000,000th of
100.000000MHz exactly, or 100Hz. For 300ppm then we have an error budget of 100Hz/ppm*300ppm=30kHz. The
period is to be measured with a frequency counter with measurement window set to 100ms or greater. The ±300ppm
applies to systems that do not employ Spread Spectrum or that use common clock source. For systems employing Spread
Spectrum there is an additional 2500ppm nominal shift in maximum period resulting from the 0.5% down spread resulting
in a maximum average period specification of +2800ppm.
Note14: Matching applies to rising edge rate for REFCLK+ and falling edge rate for REFCLK-. It is measured using a
±75mV window centered on the median cross point where REFCLK+ rising meets REFCLK- falling. The median cross
point is used to calculate the voltage thresholds the oscilloscope is to use for the edge rate calculations. The Rise Edge
Rate of REFCLK+ should be compared to the Fall Edge Rate of REFCLK-; the maximum allowed difference should not
exceed 20% of the slowest edge rate. See Figure 21, page 34.

setting of each parameter.
