12 Lane 3-Port
PCI Express® Switch
89HPES12N3A
Product Brief
Device Overview
The 89HPES12N3A, a 12 lane 3-port PCI Express® switch, is a
member of the IDT PRECISE™ family of PCI Express switching solu-
tions. The PES12N3A is a peripheral chip that performs PCI Express
Packet switching with a feature set optimized for high performance
applications such as servers and storage. It provides connectivity and
switching functions between a PCI Express upstream port and two
downstream ports or peer-to-peer switching between downstream ports.
The 89HPES12N3A offers an enhanced architecture and feature set
in a package that is pin-compatible with the first generation
89HPES12N3 12-lane, 3-port PCIe switch.

The PES12N3A is based on a flexible and efficient layered architec-
ture. The PCI Express layers consist of SerDes, Physical, Data Link and
Transaction layers. The PES12N3A can operate either as a store and
forward switch or a cut-through switch depending on the packet size
and is designed to switch memory and I/O transactions. It supports eight
Traffic Classes (TCs) and one Virtual Channel (VC) with sophisticated
resource management. This includes system selectable algorithms such
as round robin, weighted round-robin, and strict priority schemes guar-
anteeing bandwidth allocation and/or latency for critical traffic classes.

Product Description
Utilizing standard PCI Express interconnect the PES12N3A provides
the most efficient high-performance I/O connectivity device for applica-
tions requiring high throughput, low latency and simple board layout. It
provides 6 GBps (48 Gbps) of aggregated, full-duplex switching capacity
through 12 integrated serial lanes. Each lane provides 2.5 Gbps of
bandwidth in both directions and is fully compliant with PCI Express
Base specification 1.1.
