We are pleased to commence 2022 on a high note with the official release of the PCI Express® (PCIe®) 6.0 specification to members.

I am excited to report that PCI-SIG has released PCIe 6.0 specification, version 0.9 to our members. This is a major milestone in our continued effort to double the data rate of the PCI Express® specifications while maintaining backwards compatibility.

The upcoming PCIe® 6.0 specification introduces Flow Control Unit (FLIT) encoding, which enables the specification to provide low latency with high efficiency. FLIT mode is adopted for the PCIe 6.0 architecture because error correction needs to operate on fixed sized packets.

Many online resources cover the history and current state of industry development for the concept that, in Integrity and Data Encryption (IDE), we refer to as a Trusted Execution Environment (TEE).

One of the many new features included in the PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) specification will be PAM4 (Pulse Amplitude Modulation with 4 levels) signaling.

For almost two decades, the PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) architecture has offered low latency and high bandwidth in support of next generation systems.

At this year’s Open Compute Project Global Summit in San Jose on March 4 -5, attendees will have the opportunity to learn how PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) specifications enable OCP systems today and how newer versions of
