The following illustration shows the VSC7111 device in a PCIe Gen 3 buffer application.
The VSC7111 is operating in static (pin-strap) mode with the built-in PCIe receiver
detect state machine. No external control is required. Automatic (adaptive) input
equalization is enabled so that the part is autonomous and self-adjusting.
