During the PCI-SIG® US DevCon 2022, the PCI-SIG Board of Directors surprised two individuals for their years of service and contributions to the development and expansion of PCI Express® (PCIe®) technology.

Introduction

For nearly three decades, PCI Express® (PCIe®) technology has served as the de facto high bandwidth, low latency interconnect. As the industry evolves to meet the needs of data-intensive applications, the PCIe specification has kept pace, enabling future innovation.

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.

As part of our ongoing effort to broaden the adoption and deployment of PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) technology into diverse industry verticals, the PCI-SIG^® Board of Directors recently announced the PCI-SIG Automotive Taskforce.

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.

Despite the many challenges in 2020, we are proud to report that it has been a successful year for, PCI-SIG^®.  We continued the momentum started in 2019 with PCIe^® 4.0 Compliance Testing, continued work on the PCIe 6.0 specification, and brought our members new ways to engag

Each year, over 800 PCI-SIG^® member companies are invited to attend the PCI-SIG U.S. Developers Conference.

We are starting 2020 with the release of version 0.5 of the PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) 6.0 specification incorporating the significant member feedback received on version 0.3.

From Israel to Europe and Japan to Taiwan, the PCI-SIG^® Israel, Europe and APAC 2019 Developers Conference tour has come to an end for the year.

PCI Express^® (PCIe^®) technology is deployed worldwide by PCI-SIG member companies, so it only makes sense that PCI-SIG^® travels around the globe too.

Another PCI-SIG Developers Conference has come and gone, and we had a whopping 600+ member company attendees at this year’s event in Santa Clara.

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.
