So they retained PAM4 in PCIe 7.0 and had to double the clock to a freaking 30 GHz! The signaling noise will skyrocket with PCIe 6.0 due to PAM4, requiring error correction.
The signal will get even weaker with PCIe 7.0 and *far* noisier when they need to move to PAM8(?) for PCIe 8.0 The engineering challenges involved must be immense...
The progress of the PCI Express 7.0 specification is undoubtedly exciting news for the tech industry. Achieving a 512GBps connectivity milestone by 2025 showcases the relentless pursuit of faster and more efficient data transfer rates. This development will not only benefit the gaming and consumer sectors but also have profound implications for data centers, high-performance computing, and emerging technologies like AI and 5G. It's a testament to the ever-evolving nature of technology, and I'm eager to see how this advancement will shape the future of computing and connectivity.
