Abstract
This paper discusses the advantages and benefits of PCI Express technology. As a dedicated high bandwidth, low latency bus, PCI Express possesses specific technical advantages for test and measurement applications. This paper examines some specific examples of how PCI Express has been applied to existing standards like PXI and VXI. Cabled PCI Express technology is being used as method for remote VXI control while PXI has integrated PCI Express signaling into the backplane. This document also discusses the benefits of cabled PCI Express and its role in synthetic instrumentation systems. As a low latency, high bandwidth bus, PCI Express provides many technical advantages for the test and measurement industry.
