Our PCI-SIG^® members have been hard at work. In 2017, we delivered PCI Express^® 4.0 with its 16 GT/s, while also diving headfirst into PCI Express 5.0 development – first announced at our annual PCI-SIG DevCon in June 2017.

The PCI-SIG Serial Enabling Workgroup (called the “SEG” for short) is the PCI-SIG workgroup charged with running the PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) compliance program.

By now, you probably know about the PCI-SIG Developers Conference which we hold in Santa Clara each year – a free event for our 750+ member companies with four tracks of presentations over two days.

PCI Express^® – also known as PCIe – used to get a bad rap for being power hungry on servers and PCs. But I’m happy to say that this is no longer the case. Are you aware that PCIe today is extremely power efficient with built-in low power features?

I’m looking forward to attending the Flash Memory Summit (FMS) next week in Santa Clara.

Whew, what a week! That’s another PCI-SIG Developers Conference in the books though.

After successfully releasing PCIe^® 4.0 Specification Version 1.0 last October, the members of the PCI-SIG^® have been heads down and hard at work to ensure PCIe 5.0 specification is made a reality by 2019.
