קורס PCI Express עדכני, מפורט ומקיף (Gen 1.x – 4.0), המכסה את כל היבטי המפרט והדרישות של החומרה והתוכנה. החל מציון ביצועים, דרך הגדרת ארכיטקטורה וכל הדרך ועד לתכנון והגדרת פלטפורמת החומרה.
Course overview
The course provides a detailed and comprehensive understanding of the PCI Express technology.
The course is fully up-to-date and supports the basic and latest version of the international specification (1.x – 4.0), and covers all aspects of the specification (software and hardware) and all other information which requires to design and integration of systems which includes PCI Express implementations.
This course provides example implementations, and practical guidance that will give a running start on your design
Who should attend?
This in-depth course is hardware and software oriented. It describes all options and performance, and as a result it is useful for hardware & software engineers and System Architecture as well.
Prerequisite:
The participants will be able to specify performance, define architecture, writing drivers, design hardware and system integration.
