The demand for faster, more reliable, and scalable interconnects is higher than ever. From data-hungry AI/ML workloads to high-performance computing (HPC) and data centers, the backbone of modern innovation lies in how quickly and efficiently systems can move data. This is where PCIe Gen6 Controller IP comes into play, setting a new benchmark in performance and reliability.
From PCIe Gen5 to PCIe Gen6: What’s New?PCIe Gen5 has been a workhorse in many industries, offering 32 GT/s per lane and supporting a wide range of high-speed applications. But as datasets grow larger and compute workloads become more complex, PCIe Gen6 takes the leap forward:
Double the Bandwidth: PCIe Gen6 delivers 64 GT/s per lane, effectively doubling throughput compared to Gen5. This means faster data movement with the same link width (up to x16).
