1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. Purpose This document defines the addition of PCI Express, the next generation serial interconnect bus, to the stackable 104, EPIC, and EBX form factors. PCI Express was chosen because of its performance, scalability, wide market acceptance, and growing silicon availability worldwide.

1.4.2 PCI/104-Express Version 1.0 and 1.1 Peripheral Board Compatibility All PCI Express x1, USB 2.0, and SMBus boards build to version 1.0 or 1.1 are considered Universal boards and will work unchanged on either Type 1 or Type 2 host CPUs. PCI Express x16 peripherals work only on Type 1 hosts. USB 3.0, SATA, and LPC peripherals will work only on Type 2 hosts. The pin assignments on Bank 1 of the connector is exactly the same in Type 1 and Type 2, therefore all the PCI Express x1, USB 2.
• 6. SATA 1 at 1.5 Gigabits/second 7. USB 2.0 at 480 Mbits/second Follow the guidelines for up and down stacking in Table 1-2 Type 1 & Type 2 Combinations below. For example, if you have a host with a Type 1 stacking down and a Type 2 stacking up with one SATA 2, one USB 3.0, one PCI Express x1 Gen 2, two PCI Express x1 Gen 1, and one PCI Express x16 Gen 2 peripherals your stack could be configured as: • • • • • • • SATA peripheral USB 3.
PCI/104-Express and PCIe/104 incorporate four x1 PCI Express Links and options for either a single x16 Link, or two x8 Links, or two x4 PCI Express Links to allow connections to standard PCI Express device chips. The x16 Link option allows maximum flexibility, configurability, and expandability for current and future designs.
1.9.5 System Management Bus The optional System Management Bus (SMBus) is a two-wire interface through which various system component chips can communicate with each other and with the rest of the system. It is based on the principles of operation of I2C. SMBus provides a control bus for system- and power-management related tasks. A system may use SMBus to pass messages to and from devices instead of tripping individual control lines. Removing the individual control lines reduces pin count.
1.9.7 RTC Battery Any board in a system can provide a 3.0 to 3.6 volt battery on pin 154 of the Type 2 connector. This battery shall be current limited with a 1KΩ resistor, reverse current protected with a schottky diode, and filtered with a 10uF capacitor. Any board in the system may use the battery. Battery life will depend on the specific battery used and the load. Figure 1-3 RTC Battery Example 1.9.
2. EXPANSION CONNECTOR A 2.1. Functions Not all processors and chipsets support all features on the PCIe/104 connectors, and in some cases the design of the Host may consume some or all of these features, rendering them unavailable. It is up to the Host designer to determine the type and number of features included on the expansion connector. For cases where the host provides less than the maximum number of features supported by the connector, see Section 2.4.4. 2.1.

in parenthesis, for the links that have more than one lane. Last is “p” or “n” for the positive and negative signal in the differential pair. For example, Pex4_0T(2)p is the positive signal in lane number 2 of the first x4 Link. A signal on the connector is designated “transmit” or “receive” in a Host-centric manner. The “transmit” pin on the Host connects to the “T” (transmit) pin of the connector. From there, the signal connects to “receive” pin of the Device.

2.4.3.1 DIR Line on Host DIR Link 0 Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 The state of the DIR line is always determined by the Host so that the Devices can be designed without regards to the design of other Devices. On the top side connector this line must be tied to ground on the Host. On the bottom side connector the DIR line must be tied to +5 volt power during all implemented power saving modes except power completely off.
If the Device is stacked below the module, then the DIR line would be set to +5V and the SELECT line of the multiplexers would allow Link 3 to connect to the PCI device. Links 0, 1, and 2 are then allowed to shift and pass over so that Link 2 is in the Link 3 position, Link 1 is in the Link 2 position, and Link 0 is in the Link 1 position. A right-most link is now available for the next Device card to be stacked below the first Device.
2.4.5 Link Shifting PCB Examples As a demonstration of link shifting in the presence of multiple link groups, the x1 PCI Express, x4 PCI Express, USB 2.0, USB 3.0, and SATA link groups are used in Figure 2-3: Automatic Link Shifting Examples for Host and Various Devices. Any Device may use one or more Links from any group. If multiple Links are used then the necessary link shifting must be implemented on the Device PCB for each Link and Link Group.

2.5. Switching To ensure that all Device modules can be stacked up or down without manual configuration a signal switch is required on the Device. The switch is only required on interface being used. For example a SATA Device will have a switch on the SATA link, but will not have switches on USB 3.0 or PCI Express links. 2.5.1 Signal Switch A signal switch is an analog multiplexer that can be used to select between the link on top connector or the bottom connector.
2.7. Layout Recommendations The Data rate for PCI Express Generation 1 is 2.5 Gbps, Generation 2 is 5.0 Gbps, and Generation 3 is 8.0 Gbps. This means that significant frequency content exists up to 1.25 GHz for Generation 1, 2.50 GHz for Generation 2, and 4.0GHz for Generation 3. At these speeds, PCB layout becomes very critical.
2.8. Routing Topology 2.8.1 PCI Express and USB 3.0 Figure 2-6 below shows the positioning of the DC blocking capacitor and PCIe/104 connector in relation to the Host and Device. The DC blocking capacitor is placed on the transmit signals. This will be the signals the Host drives onto the Tx bus connector’s pins and the signals the Device drives onto the Rx signals of the connector.
2.8.2 SATA Figure 2-7 below shows the positioning of the DC blocking capacitor and PCIe/104 connector in relation to the Host and Device. The DC blocking capacitor is placed on the transmit and receive signals. The actual position is not critical; however the position must be closely matched between the signals of a differential pair. Note that a SATA device typically has internal capacitors, if so capacitors on the PCB are not required.
2.9. Device Connector Break-out Examples These drawings are not to scale and do not show controlled impedance lines. They are intended to show the general connections and lane shifting on a device for various PCIe/104 devices that can be stacked above or below the CPU. All power, ground, and unused signals have the top and bottom connectors connected together. The examples show the device on the top of the board; however that is not a requirement. 2.9.
2.9.3 Type 1 PCI Express x8 Device Layout Example Figure 2-10 below shows an example of routing a Type 1 x8 PCI Express link from the PCIe/104 connector directly to a PCI Express x8 device. This device is shown as a stack down version and implements lane shifting. Figure 2-10 Example breakout routing a PCI Express x8 device stacking down with lane shifting 2.9.
2.9.5 Type 2 USB 3.0 Device Layout Example Figure 2-12 below shows an example of routing an USB 3.0 link from the PCIe/104 connector to a Signal Switch. This device can be stacked either above or below the CPU and implements lane shifting. USB 3.0 requires that each USB 3.0 port to be associated with a USB 2.0 port as shown in this example. Figure 2-12 Example breakout routing an USB 3.0 device with lane shifting 2.9.
3. EXPANSION CONNECTOR B 3.1. Description Expansion Connector B is the stackable PCI Expansion connector of the PC/104-Plus and PCI-104 specifications. For full details and connector location see the PC/104-Plus or PCI-104 Specifications published by the PC/104 Consortium 3.2. Functions • • • Four 32 bit, 33 MHz PCI Bus Links each capable of Bus Mastering +5V_SB, PSON#, PME# for ATX power management Power: +3.3V, +5V, +12V, -12V PCIe/104 and PCI/104-Express Specification Revision 3.

3.4. Pin Assignment Signals are assigned in the same relative order as in the PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2, but transformed to the corresponding header connector pins. Because of the stack-through nature of the bus, slot-specific signals are duplicated for each plug-in module. The system has been designed to accommodate 4 modules, which are PC/104-Plus, PCI-104, or a combination of the two, so multiple sets of the signals have been duplicated to accommodate one signal for each module.
3.6. PCI Signaling Voltage (VI/O) Requirements 3.6.1 PCI Host Module The PCI Host board will always determine the PCI signaling level on the bus by setting all VI/O pins to either +3.3V or +5V. If VI/O is set to 3.3V, then the system will use +3.3V I/O signaling and, likewise, if VI/O is set to +5V, then the system will use +5V I/O signaling. Some PCI host modules may only allow one of the options, while others may provide a jumper to allow the user to select the signaling level.
4. PCIe/104 Type 1 and Type 2 Stacking 4.1. System Stacking Rules These rules will insure that the systems are not damaged when different type peripheral boards and host modules are stacked together. A 1-bank implementation is limited to the PCI Express x1and USB 2.0 features noted below; the STKx signals are not present.
The signals that need special consideration are: SATA_T[0:3]n, SATA_T[0:3]p, SATA_R[0:3]n, SATA_R[0:3]p, SATA_DET#[0:3], SATA_PWREN#[0:3], LPC_CLK, LPC_AD[0:3], LPC_FRAME#, LPC_SERIRQ#, LPC_DRQ#. • • • The CPU SHALL NOT DRIVE these signals until it determines that there is not a Bus Stacking Error. If the system detects a bus stacking error, it must remain in reset and not drive these signals. The CPU must tolerate PCI Express signal levels on these signals during reset.
4.4. Stack Configuration Examples Figure 4-1 illustrates a stack down configuration using PCI/104-Express and PCI-104 peripheral modules. In this configuration the Connector A, PCIe/104, could be either Type 1 or Type 2.

Figure 4-4 illustrates a stack that has PCI/104-Express Host with the PCIe/104 bus connected top and bottom with PCIe/104, PC/104-Plus, and PCI-104 peripherals. In this configuration Connector A, PCIe/104, could be either Type 1 or Type 2. Because of the requirement that each type of bus must completely reside on one side of the Host in order to avoid bus splits and signal stubs, only PCI-104 and PCIe/104 modules can be used in this configuration.
Figure 4-5 illustrates a Host with a PCIe/104 Type 1 connector going down and a PCIe/104 Type 2 connector going up. The Host does not have the top and bottom busses connected. Type 1 and Universal Devices are stacked below the Host. Type 2 and Universal Devices are stacked above the Host.

Figure 4-6 illustrates a Host with a PCIe/104 Type 2 connector going down and a PCIe/104 Type 2 connector going up. The Host does not have the top and bottom busses connected so, as in this example, it can support up to 4 SATA Devices. In this example Type 2 and Universal Devices are stacked either above or below the Host or both at the same time.

Additionally, an optional 22mm top connector was developed to allow additional height above the board. In both height options the bottom connector remains the same. An equivalent connector can be used. It is permissible to use a OneBank connector for applications that do not require the signals or power in banks 2 and 3.

6.3.3 Connector A Placement Details Since the QFS (ASP-129646-03) connector is larger than the QMS (ASP-129637-03), the QFS was used to determine the placement of both the QFS and the QMS. The maximum width of the QFS is determined by the recommend solder pad size and placement which is larger than the outer plastic dimensions of the QFS connector.
6.4. Standoff Standoffs are used to ensure stacked boards retain their connectivity. The standoffs are preferably made from stainlesssteel to provide for maximum strength and height tolerance. Pads must be provided for the standoffs, with the same plating as the pads for the PCI Express connectors. All critical dimensions are listed. It is up to the user to define the thread type. The height of the standoff shall be 0.600 inches ±0.005 inches (15.24mm ±0.127mm).
APPENDIX A: PC/104 BRIDGE CARD While advancing the PC/104 family of specifications, maintaining the stackable PCI bus was chosen over the stackable ISA bus for two reasons. First, many current and most future modern chipsets support both PCI and PCI Express. None support ISA. Second, backward compatibility to PC/104, PC/104-Plus, and PCI-104 is mechanically easier to achieve if the stackable PCI bus is retained over the stackable ISA bus.
A.1 Bridge Module Configurations The PCI-to-ISA Bridge module has three possible configurations: Basic, Stack-UP only, and Stack-DOWN Only. Because of the heights of the Q2 (PCI/104-Express and PCIe/104) connectors and the ISA Bus (PC/104-Plus) connector and because they reside in the same general location, interference can occur if a PCI-to-ISA Bridge module is placed next to PCI/104-Express or PCIe/104 module.. In this case a Stack-UP Only or a Stack-DOWN Only version must be used.
