AB20-U2PCI

AB20-U2PCI Adapter Board

Design Gateway AB20-U2PCI Adapter Board converts a 16-lane PCI Express interface into four 4-lane PCI U.2 interfaces. The Design Gateway AB20-U2PCI board is compatible with standard Intel (Altera) or AMD (Xilinx) FPGA evaluation boards, allowing evaluation of NVMe IP-Core operations and developing prototypes. The board features four U.2 connectors on the component side for up to four 2.5" U.2 SSDs, and a 16-lane PCIe connector on the solder side. Lanes 3-0, 7-4, 11-8, and 15-12 connect to SSDs at CN1, CN2, CN3, and CN4, respectively. It includes a low-jitter clock generator, reset circuitry, and a 6-pin PCIe auxiliary power supply for the adapter and SSDs. A mechanical support frame secures the U.2 SSDs.
