Parameter

Value

Description

Slot power scale

0–3

Specifies the scale used for the Slot power limit. The following

coefficients are defined:
• 0 = 1.0x

• 1 = 0.1x

• 2 = 0.01x

• 3 = 0.001x
The default value prior to hardware and firmware initialization is

b’00. Writes to this register also cause the port to send the

Set_

Slot_Power_Limit

Message.

Refer to Section 6.9 of the PCI Express Base Specification Revision for

more information.

Slot power limit

0–255

In combination with the Slot power scale value, specifies the upper

limit in watts on power supplied by the slot. Refer to Section 7.8.9 of

the PCI Express Base Specification for more information.

Slot number

Description

Endpoint L0s

acceptable

latency

Maximum of 64 ns
Maximum of 128 ns
Maximum of 256 ns
Maximum of 512 ns
Maximum of 1 us
Maximum of 2 us
Maximum of 4 us
No limit

This design parameter specifies the maximum acceptable

latency that the device can tolerate to exit the L0s state for any

links between the device and the root complex. It sets the

read-only value of the Endpoint L0s acceptable latency field of

the

Device Capabilities Register

(0x084).

This Endpoint does not support the L0s or L1 states. However,

in a switched system there may be links connected to switches

that have L0s and L1 enabled. This parameter is set to allow

system configuration software to read the acceptable latencies

for all devices in the system and the exit latencies for each link

to determine which links can enable Active State Power

Management (ASPM). This setting is disabled for Root Ports.
The default value of this parameter is 64 ns. This is the safest

setting for most designs.
