PCIe interfaceEdit
DescriptionEdit
The PCI Express interface can be available on the Evaluation Kit at the connector J36. This connector is not mounted by default.
J36 is a USB3.0 Type-A connector that delivers 1x PCIe slot. An external adapter is needed to route the signals to a standard PCIe connector.
The external adapter can be found as a PCIe riser, commonly used in Ethereum mining.
WARNING: do not connect USB devices to this port.

| 7 | - | GND_D | Ground | |
| 8 | J15.163 | SSTX- | PCIE_RXN_P | |
| 9 | J15.165 | SSTX+ | PCIE_RXN_N |
Device mappingEdit
The PCI express peripheral is mapped to the corresponding device in Linux depending on the associated kernel device driver and on the device tree configuration.
