PEX8713-CA80BC G

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Overview

The PEX8713-CA80BC G is a PCI interface IC manufactured by Broadcom Limited, classified as a PCIe Gen 3 Switch. It features 12 lanes and 10 ports, designed for high-speed data routing in server and storage systems. The component operates within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and utilizes an FCBGA-324 surface-mount package. Key electrical specifications include a power dissipation of 4.7 W and a propagation delay of 138 ns. The device is moisture sensitive and belongs to the PEX 8713 series.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Feature Summary

• Supports PCIe Generation 3 standard for enhanced bandwidth capabilities
• Configures 12 lanes across 10 distinct ports for flexible topology
• Integrated into the PEX 8713 family for standardized switching performance

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Applications

• Server infrastructure connectivity
• Storage system interconnects
• Network connectivity solutions

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Procurement Notes

Verify authenticity through authorized channels due to potential supply chain variations. Confirm RoHS compliance status via official documentation before integration. Check for recent Product Change Notifications (PCNs) that may affect material composition or manufacturing location. Ensure handling procedures account for moisture sensitivity classification during storage and reflow processes.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Selection Notes

Select this model when a 10-port, 12-lane PCIe Gen 3 switch is required within commercial temperature limits. Compare against the PEX8716 for higher lane counts or PEX8712 for reduced port density. Ensure the FCBGA-324 footprint matches the PCB layout constraints. Validate thermal management requirements against the specified 4.7 W power dissipation rating.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Part Context

This component is part of the Broadcom PEX 8713 series, which provides scalable PCIe switching solutions. It shares the FCBGA-324 package with other variants like the PEX8712 but offers increased port count. The series targets enterprise environments requiring robust data center interconnectivity without the complexity of larger fabric switches.

Analog Switches - Special Purpose Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same package and pinout include the PEX8712-CA80BC G, though it offers only 3 ports and 12 lanes. For higher capacity needs, the PEX8716-CA80BC G provides 4 ports and 16 lanes but requires different thermal considerations. Verify compatibility with existing firmware and BIOS configurations.
