1.5.2.4. Gearbox
The PCIe 3.0 base specification specifies a block size of 130 bits, with the exception of SKP Ordered Sets which can be variable length. An implementation of a 130-bit data path takes significant resources, so the PCIe Gen3 PCS data path is implemented as 32 bits wide. As the TX PMA data width is fixed to 32 bits, and the block size is 130 bits with variations, a gearbox is needed to convert the 130 bits to 32 bits. This gearbox has a transmitter bit-slip feature.
