2 Signal Description
The “#” symbol at the end of a signal name indicates that the active, or asserted state occurs when
the signal is at a low voltage level. When “#” is not present after the signal name the signal is
asserted when at the high voltage level.
Note: Segment “A” signifies the interface of the PCI bus segment of the Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI
Hub. All Intel® 6702PXH 64-bit PCI Hub PCI bus signals will use the letter “A” in these signal
names. For example, in the PCI Bus interface, PAAD[31:0] refer to the AD bus signals on
PCI Bus A.
The following notations are used to describe the signal type:
P
Power pin
I
Input pin
O
I/O
Output pin
Bi-directional Input/Output pin

PCI Express* Reference Clocks: 100 MHz differential clock pair. Connect to
an external 100 MHz differential clock.

PCI Express Compensation Inputs: Analog signals.
EXP_RXP[7:0]
EXP_RXN[7:0]
PCI Express Serial Data Inputs: PCI Express differential data receive signals.
For 4X mode, only signals EXP_RXP[3:0] and EXP_RXN[3:0] are used.
For 8X mode, all of these signals, EXP_RXP[7:0] and EXP_RXN[7:0], are
used.
These signals are the PExRp[7:0] and PExRn[7:0] signals per the PCI SIG
convention.
EXP_TXP[7:0]
EXP_TXN[7:0]
O
PCI Express Serial Data Outputs: PCI Express differential data transmit
signals.
For 4X mode, only signals EXP_TXP[3:0] and EXP_TXN[3:0] are used.
For 8X mode, all of these signals, EXP_TXP[7:0] and EXP_TXN[7:0], are used.
These signals are the PExTp[7:0] and PExTn[7:0] signals per the PCI SIG
convention.
