PCIe, RapidIO, and Ethernet for High-Speed Interconnects to Be Focus of Linley Tech Seminar
| Source: The Linley Group
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA -- (MARKET WIRE) -- April 26, 2007 -- On May 9, The Linley Group will present a
Linley Tech seminar on "High-Speed Interconnects" featuring top
technologists and industry leaders discussing the newest products and
technologies for PCIe, RapidIO, Ethernet and other leading interconnects.
The morning session focuses on the latest developments in system-level
interconnects, featuring talks from leading silicon technology suppliers on
signal integrity, system design, and switching. It also addresses the
design challenges of using high-speed interconnects and how different
interconnects can be combined in real systems.
If your interest lies in the recent advances at the physical layer for
Ethernet at 10Gbps and beyond, the afternoon session examines solutions
using 10GBase-T and LRM -- new standards developed to meet evolving system
requirements for optical and electrical. We'll examine both technologies
and provide you with critical information you need in evaluating the
appropriate technologies and products for your designs.
The day will wrap up with a lively closing panel, moderated by Jag Bolaria,
focusing on the relative strengths and merits of leading interconnects. The
audience will have the opportunity to grill a panel of experts on Ethernet,
RapidIO, and PCIe.
