The PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) 6.0 specification will provide multiple features, including Transaction Layer Packet (TLP) payload, encoding and decoding, shared credit pooling, Forward Error Correction (FEC), CRC error correction, and more.

With the widespread adoption of compute-intensive workloads – such as artificial intelligence and machine learning – in enterprise and cloud data centers, high-speed, low-latency interconnects like PCI Express^® architecture are required to connect high-performance nodes.
