PCI Express
For over a decade the computing industry has evolved around a standard board-level or chip-to-chip interconnect specification – PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect).
PCI Express (PCIe) is the newest generation interconnect that reflects an industry trend to replace legacy shared parallel buses with high-speed point-to-point serial buses. PCIe enables faster and more scaleable transmission rates with reduced complexity and costs, while keeping pace with increasing processor and I/O bandwidth requirements.
To help chip designers easily and quickly incorporate PCIe into their designs, Mentor Graphics offers a full line of silicon proven, highly configurable PCIe IP cores.
