Anyone who’s bought or researched buying a new SSD for their PC understands their limitations: they’re often constrained by the PCI Express bus to the rest of the PC, and they generate tons of heat.

Moore’s Law might be slowing down CPU compute capacity increases in recent years, but the innovation has been coming at a steady drumbeat for the interconnects used inside servers and between nodes in ...

PCI Express is an implementation of the PCI computer bus that uses existing PCI programming concepts and communications standards, based on a much faster serial communications system. In fact, PCI ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Utilizing the PCI Express bus, we have the capability to add technology to our PCs as needed. Whether it be USB 3.0, Firewire, Thunderbolt, or eSATA, the PCI Express bus allows us to achieve the full ...

Easier access to 66-Hz, 8- to 32-bit local bus systems is possible with PLX Technologies' PEX 8311 x1-lane PCI Express-to-local bus bridge. It includes root complex and end-point support. The ...

PCI Express (PCIe) is an emerging protocol for IO devices connection that is being rapidly adopted by the industry. An increasing number of applications require PCI Express connection support. A ...

OPINION: When new PC standards come online there is a danger to assume that the benefit will come from an immediate performance boost. Danger because one of the defining features that sets modern ...

Last June, the SD Association announced SD Express, an incredibly fast SD card standard that taps a PC’s PCI Express bus for speeds up to 985 Mbytes/s. Virtually no one adopted it. Now, the SD ...
