I am connecting a M.2 PCIe card to the RB5 kit through an adapter board - the interface is PCIe Port 2.

HS2-19 (GPIO 85)  PCIE2_RST_N

HS2-21 (GPIO 86) PCIE2_CLK_REQ_N

HS2-23 (GPIO 87) PCIE2_WAKE_N  (not connected)

HS3-14, HS3-16     PCIE2_REFCLK_M, PCIE2_REFCLK_P

HS3-18, HS3-20     PCIE2_RX0_M, PCIE2_RX0_P

HS3-22, HS3-24     PCIE2_RX1_M, PCIE2_RX1_P

HS3-26, HS3-28     PCIE2_TX0_M, PCIE2_TX0_P

HS3-30, HS3-32     PCIE2_TX1_M, PCIE2_TX1_P

 
CLK_REQ_N is pull-down 
We don't use Wake.
 
PCIE2_RSTN is currently held low -  putting our device in RESET.
 
The PCIE2 port appears to be in power-down / disabled.
 
How do we enable PCIE2 port and start enumeration?
 
Thank you.
C.H.Chee

Hi,

Based on your description, it looks like the connections are correct.
It may be that a driver is missing to start the communication. I'll try to find out if the PCIE drivers were included with the latest release. 

Hope this helps.

Hi C.H.Chee

Do you have boot-up log, our hardware engineer need it. 

Please capture boot-up log.

Thanks

Kevin

Hi,

There are many M.2 NVME pcie USB to M.2 adapters. But we need to test the RB5 PCIe x 2 interface  to M.2 NVME which is only available on the 60 pin RB5 connector.  If the RB% had a standard PCIe  connector, this would have been best, but it does not.
