PCI-SIG, the consortium behind the development of the PCI express standard, has announced the release of version 0.5 of its standard.
The primary objective of this revision is to offer double the bandwidth of PCIe version 6.0. At present, we’re at PCIe 5.0, which can be found on some motherboards.
At the current rate of development, we can expect version 1.0 of the standard to be available by 2025. What’s more, we learn that Alphawave Semi has already developed hardware capable of generating and measuring PCIe 7.0 signals.
