How the Doubling of Interconnect Bandwidth with PCI Express® 6.0 Impacts IP Electrical Validation
Overcoming PCIe 6.0 System Integration and Pre-Silicon Validation Challenges
PCIe, the most popular interconnect in compute, AI and storage systems, is now offering faster data rate, higher performance, lower power and lower latency than the previous generation. Because of these reasons and the addition of PAM-4 signaling, challenges such as signal integrity, power integrity, implementation, IP integration and more must be considered when designing 64GT/s systems.
Synopsys PCIe 6.0 IP TX and RX Successful Interoperability with Keysight
This DesignCon 2022 video features Synopsys PHY IP for PCIe 6.0 showing wide open PAM-4 eyes, good jitter breakdown decomposition on the Keysight oscilloscope, excellent receiver performance, and simulation-to-silicon correlation.
Synopsys IP Passes PCIe 5.0 Compliance & Makes Integrators List
As the leading supplier of IP solutions for PCIe, Synopsys IP solutions for PCIe 5.0, including digital controllers and PHYs, have officially passed PCI-SIG 5.0 Compliance Testing and are the first IP to be listed on the 5.0 Integrators List.
What’s New in PCIe 6.0—Beyond the Bandwidth
Every successive generation of PCIe has doubled the bandwidth of the previous generation. PCIe 6.0 is no different. But in addition to increasing bandwidth, it’s the most significant PCI Express protocol innovation to date. Here is what you need to know.
