Вокалист SHINEDOWN Brent Smith опубликовал в своём аккаунте в Инстаграм фрагмент с выступления группы и написал:

«Я так же сильно, как и любой из вас, хочу, чтобы такие моменты, как этот, вернулись. Я люблю выступать, и я люблю #massgatherings или, как я люблю называть их, #familyreunions. Так что, сказав это, я хотел бы воспользоваться моментом, чтобы поделиться чем-нибудь со всеми вами по всему миру.

Такие моменты, как этот, обязательно вернутся. Все мы сможем пойти и посмотреть на выступление нашего любимого артиста вживую, на соревнования наших любимых спортивных команд, и да — это будет безопасно.

В течение последних 72 часов я наблюдал, как части #usa начинают открываться заново, а также другие страны за рубежом начинают процесс снятия некоторых ограничений, и я наблюдаю, как много взволнованных и благодарных людей, готовых вырваться в мир, который они так любят, но, я также вижу, что есть люди, которые имеют серьёзные опасения из-за открытия различных регионов.

С самого начала блокировки я сделал одну вещь, которая действительно помогла мне лично сориентироваться в этой #pandemic, и это просвещает меня.

Мы должны уважать не только друг друга, но и позволять людям, которые работают круглосуточно и без выходных, обеспечивать нашу #safety и наше #future.

Я знаю, что мы все #Anxious и хотим вернуться к #Life, но я прошу всех нас быть уважительными друг к другу и не быть эгоистичными.

Я знаю, что это трудно, но, я обещаю вам, что если мы все будем работать #together, то и сможем #riseuptogether.

У всех нас в @shinedown — меня, @zmyersofficial, @bkerchofficial и @ebassprod есть поговорка, которая дорога нашим сердцам... И она звучит так: "Дело не в художнике, дело в картине".

Мы #love всех вас, и мы скоро будем вместе. #westandtall #atlasfalls #directrelief #shinedown #shinedownnation #shinedowncrew #shinedownfamily #respect». #Shinedown #AlternativeRock #Alternative_Rock #GrungeRock #Grunge_Rock

“FULL DISCLOSURE” This is MY opinion 👇 I want moments like this back just as much as anyone. I love performing, and I LOVE #massgatherings or as I like to call them #familyreunions 🤗. So that being said, I wanted to take a moment to share something with all of you around the world. Moments like this WILL happen again. All of us will be able to go, and see our favorite artist perform live, our favorite sports teams compete, and yes it will be safe to do so. For the last 72 hours, I have watched parts of the #usa begin to reopen, and also other countries abroad begin the process of lifting certain lockdown restrictions, and I can see so many people excited, and grateful, and running out into the world they love so much but, I am also seeing that there are people that have serious concerns in their eyes, as parts of the world begin to open back up. Since the very beginning of the lockdown, I have done one thing that has truly helped me personally navigate through this #pandemic, and that is educate myself. We must be respectful of not only each other, but also allowing the people that are working 24/7 around the clock to insure our #safety and our #future. I know we are all #Anxious and we want to get back to living #Life , but I ask all of us to be respectful of each other, and to not be selfish. I know this is difficult but, I promise you if we all work #together we will #riseuptogether. All of us in @shinedown myself, @zmyersofficial @bkerchofficial and @ebassprod have a saying that we hold dear to our hearts... And that is “It’s not about the painter, it’s about the painting 🌎”. We #love you ALL, and we will be together soon. ❤️⚠️❤️. #westandtall #atlasfalls #directrelief #shinedown #shinedownnation #shinedowncrew #shinedownfamily #respect Moving pictures by THE MAN!!! @sanjayparikhphoto

Last week the weather disrupted the Indians as they opened the Outdoor Season at Pittsburg State University.  Thunderstorms and lightning prevented numerous races and events from running on schedule.  For many, the meet yesterday was their opportunity to finally compete.

PCIe has been widely adopted in the electronics industry since its first debut in 2003 (PCIe 1.0 standard release) for wide breach of applications, from Data Center Server, Networking, to Mobile, AI/ML, Automotive, IoT, and many others…. It’s a versatile, high-performance, robust, mature interconnect standard with full “backward compatibility” (e.g., a PCIe 3.0 device can still function well in a PCIe 4.0 system) which enables a solid and strong PCIe eco-system in the industry.  While the market, so as the users,  are enjoying the systems, e.g., desktop/laptop, powered (or to be more specific: “bridged”) by PCIe 3.0 since 2010, the industry is pushing hard for the PCIe 4.0 eco-system enablement. Earlier this year, AMD announced it X570 chipset would support the PCIe 4.0 interface and Phison also introduced the world’s first PCIe 4.0 SSD.

On the standard evolution front, the official PCIe 5.0 came out in May 2019, doubling the data rate to 32GT/s from 16GT/s in PCIe 4.0. The PCIe 6.0 standard will be released in 2021 based on the announcement made by PCI-SIG in June’19 with the goal to further double the data rate to 64GT/s with incorporating the PAM4 coding.

PCIe Protocol Evolution

Having said that, is the latest generation of PCIe always desired?  

My answer would be positive. Just like car maker/enthusiast has kept pursuing faster car in the history, there is no doubt that these speed enhancements/upgrades in the electronic world certainly provide a tremendous benefit for especially those applications craving the most throughput, such as Data center, HPC, Networking, Cloud and AI applications.   

But, does every application have to opt for the fastest speed (bandwidth)? My view would be leaning toward “Not really”. Just like we don’t need a 3-second sport car (meaning 0-60mph acceleration < 3s) for daily commute though it would certainly spice some driving fun on the road, but it may not be "the best fit" for most of commuters.

There are applications still well satisfied with PCIe 3.0 (or even older PCIe 2.0) for its best performance and cost balance.  Those applications include, but not limit to, IoT/consumer, Edge AI, SSD (non-enterprise),…etc. They typically need to make trade-off in between the cost, power consumption (especially battery powered), flexibility on changing product features, and time-to-market (TTM). To address such type of market needs, Cadence also offers an PPA (Performance, Power, Area) optimized PCIe 3.0 solution in addition to its high-performance PCIe 4.0 product line.

Cadence PCIe 3.0 PHY Solution (with Multi-Protocol Multi-Link feature)

With leveraging the multi-protocol SerDes implementation, the same Cadence PHY IP support multi-protocol and multi-link operation. Such a multi-protocol enabled PHY gives the SoC developers the optimum flexibility to integrate multiple commonly used interface protocols (e.g., PCIe 3.0 + USB 3.0) with using only a single PHY design.  This would largely save the product development time (faster TTM), reduce the risk of using multiple different PHY instances (for different protocol needs), and with the configurability to enable different product features/protocols.

Some people might say PCIe 3.0 era has gone. I was not quite yet being convinced as I still see its potential to shine a lot of market use cases. What do you think?
