Broadcom PCI Interface IC, Part #: PEX8604-BA50BC G | Integrated Circuit | DEX

Broadcom PCI Interface IC part PEX8604-BA50BC G offers PCI Express switching capability enabling users to add scalable high bandwidth non-blocking interconnection to a wide variety of applications including control plane applications, consumer applications and embedded systems. The PEX 8604 is well suited for fan-out, peer-to-peer, and intelligent I/O module applications.

The PEX 8604 architecture supports packet cut-thru with a maximum latency of 190ns in x1 to x1 configuration. This, combined with low power consumption and non-blocking internal switch architecture, provides full line rate on all ports for low power applications such as consumer and embedded. The low latency enables applications to achieve high throughput and performance. In addition to low latency, the device supports a max payload size of 2048 bytes, enabling the user to achieve even higher throughout.

The PEX 8604 provides end-to-end CRC protection (ECRC) and Poison bit support to enable designs that require guaranteed error-free packets. PLX also supports data path parity and memory (RAM) error correction as packets pass through the switch.
