7.2 PCIe
Jetson Orin NX brings four PCIe interfaces to the module pins for up to seven total lanes (1 x4
+ 1 x1 + 1x2) for use on the carrier board. The PCIe x4 interface (PCIE0) operates up to Gen4
speed and supports both Root Port and Endpoint operation. The PCIe x1 interface (PCIE1)
operates up to Gen4 speed and support only Root Port operation. The PCIe x2 interface (PCIE2)
can also be broken into two x1 interfaces (PCIE2 x1 and PCIE3 x1). PCIE2 and PCIE3 operate
up to Gen4 speed and support only Root Port operation. Figure 7-9 shows all possible
interfaces as Root Ports. Figure 7-10 shows the x4 interfaces as an Endpoint. Lane reversal
and polarity inversion (P/N swapping) is supported per controller.
