Abstract

The invention provides a method, system and device for enabling UPI to be compatible with PCIE on a PCB, and the method comprises the steps: defining the attributes of a part of pins of the UPI, and enabling differential signals corresponding to the part of pins to be compatible with PCIE signals; the number of the partial pins is equal to the number of the PCIE pins; and adjusting the routing distance and the surface routing length of the differential signals corresponding to part of the pins. The method further comprises the steps of customizing a cable connected with the PCB; a first signal input end of the cable is integrated with a capacitor; the first signal input end is a PCIE connector end; a second signal input end of the cable is connected with a clock signal; the second signal input end is a clock connector; the signal output end of the cable is connected with a to-be-connected device. Based on the method, the invention further provides a system and a device for compatibility of the UPI and the PCIE, the PCIE and the UPI routing rule are combined according to the requirement of a high-speed line, so that UPI routing gives consideration to the PCIE routing function, and the space is reasonably utilized.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of printed circuit board design, and in particular relates to a UPI-compatible PCIE method, system and device on a PCB. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the big data era, the requirements for server data processing speed and capacity are increasing. The server is gradually developing from single-way (one CPU) to multi-way (multiple CPUs). And in the PCB functional design, considering the scalability of the CPU, many UPI connectors are often added, so that the CPUs on multiple single-channel motherboards can be connected to a multi-channel motherboard through UPI connectors in the later stage. Meet the needs of different data processing capabilities. But when there is no need for expansion, the UPI function on the single-channel motherboard will be idle, resulting in a waste of PCB board functions and space. [0003] In the prior art, there is no design for making UPI compatible with PCIE o...
