Texas Instruments XIO2000A EVM User Manual
The XIO2000A Evaluation Board (EVM) implements a PCI Express to PCI bridge using the Texas Instruments XIO2000A chip. It is a half‑width PCI Express add‑in card with a standard 4‑layer board (2 signals, 1 power, 1 ground) and 100‑Ω differential impedance.
The manual covers EVM features such as PCI Express connector, three PCI add‑in slots, EEPROM interface, test header, CLKRUN power‑saving signal, LED status indicators, a bill of materials and full schematics, plus a troubleshooting section that walks users through power checks, bridge configuration and downstream device verification.

What should I check if the XIO2000A EVM is not working?
Verify the EVM power, confirm the bridge is link‑training, ensure the bridge has been configured, and check downstream devices.
Why does the PCI bus run at 33 MHz when a 33‑MHz card is inserted?
The board detects the lower‑speed device and automatically sets the bus speed to 33 MHz.
