Single Channel PCIe Board

Here is the full layout of the Single Channel PCIe board.  A PLX PEX8311 is sitting on top of the PCIe Bus, and there is a Xilinx XCS20 as the Local Bus Master.  The PCIe interface is LVDS at high clock rates, so the board needed to be controlled impedance.  The stackup is really important in this matter.  Keeping your signals out of the wind makes a happy circuit board...
