The PCI2040GGU from Texas Instruments is a PCI-to-DSP bridge controller designed to facilitate high-speed communication between PCI-based host systems and digital signal processors (DSPs). Packaged in a 144-BGA form factor, this IC operates within a 0°C to 70°C temperature range and supports dual-voltage supply (3.3V or 5V), making it versatile for embedded systems. Though now obsolete, it remains relevant in legacy designs due to its robust PCI interface and REACH/RoHS3 compliance, ensuring environmental and regulatory adherence.
This bridge controller is ideal for:
The PCI2040GGU provides a reliable, though now obsolete, solution for PCI-DSP interfacing, combining flexible power options, compact packaging, and compliance with environmental standards. Its niche in legacy DSP systems and embedded applications ensures continued utility in specialized industrial and communication designs. Engineers seeking backward-compatible PCI-DSP bridging may still find value in this controller for maintenance or phased-upgrade scenarios.
