OXPCIe200

OXPCIe200

PCI Express to USB & UART Bridge

Part of PLX's Expresso family of high-performance PCI Express® devices, the OXPCIe200 is a single-chip multi-port bridge with a rich set of connectivity ports and advanced system management to maximize data throughput while substantially reducing CPU and system loading.

A fully integrated, single-lane PCI Express end-point controller and SerDes enables host system to access the USB 2.0 host, SPI and SRAM ports, a PLX high-performance 950 UART, plus user-defined GPIOs/PWMs. The device operates as either dual USB 2.0 host ports or one USB 2.0 host port and one SPI or SRAM port providing a high-throughput communication path from a PCI Express host system to a slave processor or peripherals.

Complete with the Oxide development tools and certified device drivers, the OXPCIe200 is easy to design-in and the ideal connectivity solution for a diverse range of products, including inter-processor communication, device control, I/O expansion, and Multi-modem ExpressCard modules.

Accelerate product development and time to market with Oxide and PLX's easy-to-design-in, high-performance serial connectivity solutions that just work.
