SS24-0B00-02

Specialized Overview

SS24-0B00-02 is a PCI interface IC from Broadcom Limited, specifically the PEX89104B0-2-DB variant within the SS24 series. It functions as a PCIe Gen 5.0 switch featuring 104 lanes and 52 ports. The component utilizes a dual-core ARM A15 embedded processor for traffic management. Key technical specifications include 115 ns latency, 38 GT/s serial data rate, and support for MSI-X and DPC/Read SRNS. The typical power consumption is 38 W. It is housed in a non-standard SMD/SMT package measuring 42.5 x 42.5 mm.

Specialized Feature Summary

• Supports PCIe Gen 5.0 Express Fabric Technology with industry-leading 32GT/s SerDes for high-bandwidth data transfer.
• Integrates a dual-core ARM A15 embedded processor to relieve host CPU load in traffic and I/O management.
• Delivers drastic improvement in power-per-Gigabyte compared to previous generations, consuming less than half the power of Gen 4.0 alternatives.

Specialized Applications

• Hyperscale Compute systems
• AI/ML infrastructure
• Data Center and Cloud Platforms

Specialized Procurement Notes

Verify part authenticity through authorized Broadcom channels or certified distributors. Confirm RoHS compliance status via the latest datasheet. Check for Product Change Notifications (PCN) regarding manufacturing updates. Ensure the specific suffix matches the required pinout and electrical characteristics. Validate supply chain integrity due to potential restricted availability.

Specialized Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring 104 lanes of PCIe Gen 5.0 connectivity. Compare against SS26-0B00-00 for higher lane counts or SS23-0B00-00 for lower port density requirements. Evaluate thermal management needs based on the 38 W typical power consumption. Ensure PCB layout supports the 42.5 x 42.5 mm non-standard package dimensions.
