Thunderbolt
- Goshen Ridge (JHL8440) device controller – for use in docks and peripherals
- Maple Ridge (JHL8540 and JHL8340) host controllers – for use in computers, tablets, and other client devices
Host must be able to provide 15W for Thunderbolt4 and 7.5 for USB4
Intel N100
Investigate something related to power/performance called PL1 and PL2
PCIe Port Feature Details of N100
| Max Transfer Rate | Max Devices (ports) | Max Lanes | PCIe Gen Type | Encoding | Transfer Rate (MT/s) | Max Bandwidth x1 | Max Bandwidth x2 | Max Bandwidth x4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2.5 GT/s (Gen2) | 5 | 9 | 1 | 8b/10b | 2500 | 0.25 | 0.50 | 1.0 |
| 5 GT/s (Gen2) | 5 | 9 | 2 | 8b/10b | 5000 | 0.5 | 1.00 | 2.0 |
| 8 GT/s (Gen3) | 5 | 9 | 3 | 128b/130b | 8000 | 1.00 | 2.00 | 3.94 |
note: 1. Theoritical Maximum Bandwidth (GB/s) = ((Transfer Rate * Encoding * # PCIe Lanes)/8)/1000. Gen3 Example:= ((8000 128/1304)/8)/1000 = 3.94 GB/s
