Today's router and switch designers face a daunting task. They must build systems that support high availability while also efficiently and cost-effectively guiding network traffic through a mesh of ...

There are significant differences between the PCI Express architecture and its future cousin Advanced Switching Interconnect (ASI), but contrary to popular belief, the ability to build robust ...

The SKY63104/5/6 family of jitter attenuating clocks and SKY62101 clock generators are the industry’s first clock devices that can simultaneously generate Ethernet and PCI Express® (PCIe) spread ...

PCIe has been around since 2004. It’s a high-speed serial computer expansion bus specification that replaces older PCI and PCI-X standards. PCIe currently supports the Generation 4 specification. In ...

A two-month clock has begun ticking for the release of PCI Express 2.0, an update designed to help the ubiquitous computer communication technology with virtualization, power management and high-end ...

As high-speed interconnects and virtualization software make their way into enterprise data centers, IT managers need to take a close look at how their servers are keeping pace. Experts say that in ...

PCI Express is an interface standard developed by the Peripheral Component Interconnect Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG). Originally designed for desktop personal computers, it’s used across a range ...

Multiplying things by two and putting them on a roadmap is easy, even if it does take a lot of courage to do that. Actually making that 2X performance boost happen is, in a lot of cases in the ...

The PCIe (peripheral-component-interconnect express) protocol is highly desirable for communication across backplanes in embedded and other system types. However, for an embedded-system environment in ...

The release of the Raspberry Pi 4 brought us a new SoC, up to 4 Gigs of memory, and most importantly, got away from that janky USB to USB and Ethernet solution. The Raspberry Pi 4 has a PCI Express ...
