Datasheet
The transmission side of the Data Link Layer accepts TLPs assembled by the
Transaction Layer, calculates and applies data protection code and TLP sequence
number, and submits them to Physical Layer for transmission across the Link. The
receiving Data Link Layer is responsible for checking the integrity of received TLPs and
for submitting them to the Transaction Layer for further processing. On detection of TLP
error(s), this layer is responsible for requesting retransmission of TLPs until information
is correctly received, or the Link is determined to have failed. The Data Link Layer also
generates and consumes packets which are used for Link management functions.
2.2.1.3
Physical Layer
The Physical Layer includes all circuitry for interface operation, including driver and
input buffers, parallel-to-serial and serial-to-parallel conversion, PLL(s), and impedance
matching circuitry. It also includes logical functions related to interface initialization and
maintenance. The Physical Layer exchanges data with the Data Link Layer in an
implementation-specific format, and is responsible for converting this to an appropriate
serialized format and transmitting it across the PCI Express Link at a frequency and
width compatible with the remote device.
2.2.2
PCI Express Configuration Mechanism
The PCI Express (external graphics) link is mapped through a PCI-to-PCI bridge
structure.
PCI Express extends the configuration space to 4096 bytes per-device/function, as
compared to 256 bytes allowed by the Conventional PCI Specification. PCI Express
configuration space is divided into a PCI-compatible region (which consists of the first
256 bytes of a logical device's configuration space) and an extended PCI Express region
(which consists of the remaining configuration space). The PCI-compatible region can
be accessed using either the mechanisms defined in the PCI specification or using the
enhanced PCI Express configuration access mechanism described in the PCI Express
Enhanced Configuration Mechanism section.
