This "How To" article shows how FPGAs are driving the adoption of PCI Express in the embedded market.
As the industry transitions from traditional, bus-based shared I/O schemes with system synchronous clocking (such as PCI), point-to-point system interconnects that use serial I/O technologies are fast becoming the norm. While PCI has been the most widely used bus standard in the PC, server and embedded market for the past decade, PCI Express – with its wide appeal across industry segments – is widely seen as the future of PCI. In fact, it is estimated that PCI Express will replace 80% of all existing PCI ports by the end of 2007 (Fig 1).
