Features:
* Internal Mini SAS HD 1x2, 4X(SFF-8673) to PCIe x8 Gen4 convert
* Built-in SFF-8673 1x2, 4X connector,
* Input power 3.3V with TVS and Load Switch protection to protect ReDriver controller
* PCIe 4.0 8 lanes signals input and output with ESD protection
* Built-in ReDriver controller to extend PCIe 4.0, 16GT/s 8 lanes differential pair signals data link width, and may provides programmable linear equalization, output swing and flat gain.
* The PCIe 8 lanes can be bifurcated into two x4 link width to support different system topologies
* Built-in PCIe 100MHz clock buffer(Address: 0x6C) for SFF-8673 1x2, 4X to drive longer cable length. It may be buffered and fanned out to the SFF-8673 1x2, 4X clock pin dual port output.
* Built-in SMBus Switch(Address: 0x70) with Reset funtion for SFF-8673 1x2, 4X dual port SMBus communication
* Built- in SMBus bidirectional buffer repeater
* Built-in SMBus I/O Expander(Address: 0x20) for OOB (out of band) management to remote SFF-8673 1x2, 4X dual port Reset signals
* Built-in PERST# Bus Buffer Gate to be used over longer trace lengths and over longer cable lengths.
* Supports PCIe PERST# for OOB (out of band) management to remote SFF-8673 1x2, 4X dual port Reset
* Built-in WAKE# Bus Buffer Gate to be used over longer trace lengths and over longer cable lengths.
* Built-in CLKREQ# Bus Buffer Gate to be used over longer trace lengths and over longer cable length.
* D1 Green LED on indicates AIC ready
* LED1 Green OFF indicates PERST# Normal (Function intentionally inverted)
* LED2 Green OFF indicates WAKE# Normal (Function intentionally inverted)
* LED3 Green OFF indicates CLKREQ# Normal (Function intentionally inverted)
