T2080NXE8T1B

[AD1]

Hi,

I want to interface T2080NXE8T1B processor with an FPGA using PCIe(3.0).

How to provide 100 MHz ref clock for both processor and FPGA(as processor is RC in our case)

Can we provide 100MHz ref clock(PCIe)  from processors SerDes banks Ref clock pins directly to FPGA

(or)

we need to locally generate clock signals for both processor and FPGA using a clock generator or buffer?

1. We need to locally generate clock signals for both processor and FPGA using a clock generator or buffer?
[NXP]: Yes
2. Can we provide 100MHz ref clock(PCIe) from processors SerDes banks Ref clock pins directly to FPGA
[NXP]: Not possible
