PCIe - Sizing Replay Buffer Appropriately and Achieving High Throughput in the Process


Format: PDF Document
 

PCI Express is the latest generation I/O technology for high performance chip-to-chip interconnect applications. The overall performance of the PCI Express system depends on how quickly the data flows from node to node and how efficiently the data flows from end to end.

This paper describes the conditions that affect the performance in PCI Express and the special role replay buffers play in achieving high performance. Further, how to decide the appropriate size of the replay buffers for your particular needs will also be discussed.
