The PEX8733-CA RDK (Reference Design Kit) is an evaluation and demonstration board that opens doors to many opportunities in a wide range of applications. This board provides a great platform to directly evaluate and test full PCI Express features. The board design integrates the PCIe-8733, PCIe link training engine, a 100 MHz reference clock, and a USB-controlled JTAG interface for device programming.The board also includes a CPLD (Complex Programmable Logic Device), which includes the routing logic for configuration and testing purposes. It also provides configuration flexibility for the PCIe logic and signalling. The PEX8733-CA RDK is an excellent support for evaluation and demonstration of the PCIe-8733.The functions of the PEX8733-CA RDK include:

• Full PCI Express 3.0 support
• Advanced training and compliance on PCI Express 3.0
• Flexible device programming through USB connection
• PCI-to-PCI bridge support
• Multiple system I/O capabilities
• Low-speed and full-speed connectivity options
• Hardware-enabled link training and power management
• Power management and device configuration support

As far as its working principle is concerned, the PEX8733-CA RDK is designed to follow the steps specified in the PCIE-8733 manual. The first step is to configure the board using the USB-based JTAG. This involves setting the main system device, such as a PCIe PCIE-8733, in addition to the CPLD controlling logic. Once this step is completed, then the PCIe link training can occur, resulting in a fully-functional PCIe connection. In addition to the link training, the system configuration and power management are supported through hardware-based logic.The next step is to establish PCIe transactions. To do this, the PEX8733-CA RDK supports two different types of PCIe transactions: upstream PCIe access and downstream PCIe access. On the upstream connection, the PEX8733-CA RDK can be configured to act as a root complex. On the downstream connection, a PCIe switch can be used to connect two or more systems together. In addition, the board supports legacy devices such as IDE and USB, as well as PCI-to-PCI bridges.Finally, the PEX8733-CA RDK also supports multiple I/O operations, such as DMA, bus mastering, and interrupt support. This allows for comprehensive evaluation and demonstration of PCI Express 3.0 features and functionality.In conclusion, PEX8733-CA RDK is a powerful and versatile demonstration and evaluation board that can be used to examine the full capabilities of PCIe 3.0 and develop an array of different applications. It provides the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the development and testing of PCI Express 3.0 implementations, from simple to the more complex, as well as helping to improve and optimize existing designs.
