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 ...
PCI Express is about to arrive. This new, high-speed serial interconnect technology at long last promises to bring traditionally slow I/O subsystems up to par with increasingly fast microprocessors, ...
The SAF1562HL is a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)-based, single-chip Universal Serial Bus (USB) Host Controller. It integrates two Original USB Open Host Controller Interface (OHCI) cores, ...
Computing and communications technologies have advanced along with changing markets, bringing these technologies together at the silicon, board and system levels. The compute industry has evolved ...
If rumors floating around the 'Net are true, Intel is set to drop support for the PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus when it launches its next-generation 6-series of chipsets with support for ...
The Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) architecture has been the cornerstone for I/O connectivity in computing, communication, and storage platforms for more than two decades. What started off as ...
The PCI-special interest group (SIG) has just released a new revision of the PCI Express Base 2.0 specification to its member companies for testing. The revision is the last incarnation before the ...
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 ...
It’s amazing to consider that, with all the upheaval and change that has occurred in the IT world over the past decade, the primary I/O bus architecture for PCs and servers hasn’t changed since the ...
Do you know where your traffic is? Serial protocol analyzers easily locate bits, bytes, packets, and headers. To win a trade-magazine design challenge, Ted needed to list 15 high-speed buses in order ...
As PC microprocessors pass the 3-GHz clock-speed mark and Gigabit Ethernet begins its move onto the corporate desktop, it’s easy to forget that the typical expansion bus in desktops sold today still ...
You seem a bit confused in your terminology. Thunderbolt is effectively external PCIe. While TB can support external breakout boxes that might generally eliminate the need for internal expansion slots ...
