The DS320PR412-421EVM evaluation board provides a complete high-bandwidth platform for evaluating the signal conditioning features of the Texas Instruments SN75LVPE5412, SN75LVPE5421, DS320PR412 and DS320PR421 PCI-Express® linear redrivers. It features two SN75LVPE5412 and two SN75LVPE5421 devices that can extend the transmission distance of a PCI-Express® 5.0 16x bus. The evaluation board can be used for standard add-in card compliance testing, performance evaluation and initial system prototyping.
