If the datacenter had been taken over by InfiniBand, as was originally intended back in the late 1990s, then PCI-Express peripheral buses and certainly PCI-Express switching – and maybe even Ethernet ...

While there are plenty of distributed applications that are going to chew through the hundreds of gigabits per second of bandwidth per port that modern Ethernet or InfiniBand ASICs deliver inside of ...

As the industry transitions from shared, arbitrated, bus-based system interconnect architectures like PCI to high-performance, serial, point-to-point architectures like PCI Express, designers are ...

With the benefits of reduced power consumption, scalability of bandwidth, increased data throughput and improved signal integrity, PCI Express (PCIe®) has replaced legacy bus-based PCI and PCI-X, and ...

Design teams today must implement PCIe solutions that meet both active and low idle power requirements of today’s power sensitive markets, especially mobile and battery operated applications. The ...

Good grief! Over the last few weeks I've been exposed to more information on high-speed serial interconnect technologies — especially PCI Express — than my poor old brain can handle (I still remember ...

Can you really believe it's been six years since we first saw PCI-Express? Even PCI-Express 2.0 has been around since 2007, and three years later, here we are with the next generation ratified and ...

PCI Express is a technology that consistently makes headlines, with new specifications boasting ever-improving performance regularly appearing in the news. It may come as a surprise, then, to learn ...

Adopted by the PCI SIG -- the industry group that looks after the bus definitions -- PCI Express aims to be the standard bus for the next ten years or so. PCI Express is similar to classic PCI in the ...

The common hardware interface in PCs, Macs and other computers for connecting peripheral devices such as storage drives and graphics cards. PCI Express (PCIe) was introduced in 2002 as "Third ...
