#169715 - re: design out PCI?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Oliver Sedlacek said:
A few years ago I design a PCI interface board, and the customer says that the PCI interface chips are now hard to get hold of. We will have to decide whether to try and find an alternative chip or whether to abandon PCI entirely. Does anyone have any info on the expected lifetime of PCI?


I don't know about chip availability -- PLX still seems to sell the 9056 and 9656 parts -- but how many new PCs have PCI slots? The world has moved on to PCIe.
