You might’ve come across terms like PCI or PCIe when looking into computer components, especially if you’re in the market for a new computer or trying to upgrade ...

PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express) is a high-bandwidth expansion bus that allows people to connect things like solid-state drives and graphics cards. Each new generation brings changes ...

The MCS9901CV single-lane PCI Express (PCIe) to peripheral controller supports serial, parallel, ISA, and USB interfaces. It can provide 21 combinations of serial, parallel, USB, and ISA interfaces ...

It's a well-known fact that solid-state drives (SSDs) are faster and superior to old mechanical hard drive disks, which are more commonly called HDDs (via Enterprise Storage Platform). An archaic ...

The advanced serial communication standard Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) was originally developed for use in personal computers, to overcome challenges such as clock and data-signal skew ...

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 ...

How to identify the six essential factors for choosing the right PCIe switch. How to evaluate factors such as bandwidth, scalability, latency, and energy efficiency. How to make the right choice in a ...

PCI-Express, commonly referred to as PCI-E, and PCI-X are both technology standards designed to improve upon the older PCI standard. Despite the similarity of their names, these two standards are ...

In a press release in my inbox, the PCI-SIG PR representative said that PCIe 5.0 and PCIe 6.0 internal and external cable specifications are currently in development and are "targeted for release" in ...

We've jumped many chasms over the past three decades of server-based computing. In the 1990s, we went from single-socket standalone servers to clusters. Then with the millennium, we first saw ...

The PCI as well as PCIe (at least for small sized - say 4/8 byte) reads and writes are slower than the newer processors. How does the CPU handle this? One way I can think of is that the CPU stalls the ...
