Proceedings Registration
On June 3rd we brought together industry leaders to discuss the latest products and technologies for system-level interconnects and recent developments at the physical layer for various protocols. With speeds ranging from 3Gbps to 40Gbps and 100Gbps, these interconnects are used at the board level, over the backplane, and between systems. The seminar delivered a wealth of information on interconnect technologies, developing standards, and technology trends.
Jag Bolaria, senior analyst at The Linley Group, began the program with
an overview of interconnect technologies, standards,
applications, silicon trends, and market forecast. The interconnects covered included PCIe, RapidIO, HyperTransport, Display Interfaces, SATA, SAS, Interlaken, and Ethernet. The remainder of the
day included talks and panel discussions exploring the latest products and technologies for wireless interconnects, optical interconnects, and 40G/100G Ethernet interconnects.
