Unifying Storage Diversity: Leveraging PCIe IP for Multi-Device, Multi Form Factor Designs

In the fast-paced world of data storage, designers are racing to keep up with ever-evolving interface standards and form factors. This whitepaper explores the impact of these industry shifts, focusing on the integration of PCIe interfaces within the context of varying storage device form factors like the Enterprise and Datacenter Standard Form Factor (EDSFF). PCIe designs need to be flexible in their link widths and support multiple protocols to ensure optimal performance across various environments. Balancing high-speed data transfer with system constraints, such as heat management and power efficiency, is a complex but necessary task. This knowledge is crucial for designers and engineers to stay ahead in this rapidly advancing industry, in particular for PCIe 6.0 and the upcoming PCIe 7.0 specification. Understanding these trends and anticipating future ones is key to remaining competitive.
