Abstract

From the Publisher:This book offers an introduction to PCI Express, a new I/O technology for desktop, mobile, server and communications platforms designed to allow increasing levels of computer system performance. Hardware and software developers will discover how to employ PCI Express technology to overcome the practical performance limits of existing multi-drop, parallel bus technology.Introduction to PCI Express explains critical technical considerations that both hardware and software developers need to understand to take full advantage of PCI Express technology in next generation systems. Learn about: Metrics and criteria for developers and product planners to consider in adopting PCI ExpressApplications for desktop, mobile, server and communications platforms that will benefit significantly from PCI Express technologyImplications for hardware and software developers of the layered architecture of PCI ExpressFeatures of PCI Express available in legacy software environmentsComparison of features of PCI Express, PCI-X and PCINew form factors mechanical designs enabled by PCI Express
