Why the need for PCI Express? As processor clock speeds increase, parallel buses such as PCI become harder to implement. Signal skew and fan-out restrictions restrict the bandwidth achievable on a ...

The XIO2001 is a single-function PCI Express to PCI translation bridge that is fully compliant to the PCI Express to PCI/PCI-X Bridge Specification, Revision 1.0. For downstream traffic, the bridge ...

One of the most comprehensive refreshes of Intel architecture will start rolling out this summer. The PCI Express bus will replace current I/O interfaces, such as PCI for device interconnects and ...

Currently dominating the desktop PC motherboard and graphics markets, the PCI Express protocol is poised to supplant PCI and PCI-X interface as the dominant high-bandwidth interconnect for the server, ...

No matter what, system architects are always going to have to contend with one – and possibly more – bottlenecks when they design the machines that store and crunch the data that makes the world go ...

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 ...

For more than a decade the PCI bus has been the backbone of personal computers. Other systems, such as telephony and networking, adopted the technology for its cost and performance advantages. But now ...

The PCI Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG), developer of the PCI and PCI Express (PCIe) specifications, recently announced the PCIe External Cabling 1.0 Specification, which extends PCIe architecture ...

Specifications for two new interconnect technologies were released yesterday by the Peripheral Component Interconnect-Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG), the group said in a press release (download PDF) ...

This vendor-written tech primer has been edited by Network World to eliminate product promotion, but readers should note it will likely favor the submitter’s approach. By building on the natural ...

The PCI standards group PCI-SIG (Special Interest Group) comprised of AMD, Intel, NVIDIA, and other technology bigwigs announced it has finalized the specifications for the PCI Express 4.0 standard.

Internal SSDs supporting the PCI Express (PCIe) 5.0 bus standard are, as a class, the speediest consumer solid-state drives out there. (The best of them promise peak throughput speeds double those of ...
