PCIe® 5.0 and 6.0: Tx, Rx, and Protocol Test Challenges and Solutions

PCIe 6.0 will double the bandwidth of PCIe 5.0 to 1024 Gb/s among the same maximum number of lanes-16. The data transfer rate will hit 64 GT/s per pin, up from PCIe 5.0's 32 GT/s. And there is the move from NRZ to PAM4 . PCIe 6.0 is also backward compatible with previous PCIe generations. This throws in variety of design conundrums and also opportunities. Expert speakers will discuss threadbare on how to overcome PCIe 6.0 challenges and reduce overall design life cycle.
