New Interface Standards

PCI Express has been out for a few years now and there are a fair number of PCIe 16x board manufacturers. What seems to be missing is 1x card manufacturers. interfacebus has only accounted for 6 different companies that produce 1x boards.

LXI is another new standard which came out in 2005 for industrial use. However; only 2 companies have been located that produce LXI gear.

Yet another industrial specification released in 2005 was PXIe. The PXIe is the PCI Express version of the PXI standard. PXI is the Instrumentation version of cPCI. Compact PCI is the industrial version of PCI.

Released in 2006; Compact TCA [cTCA] is another one with out many vendors yet......

There are many other new standards that have been coming out in the last year or so. Most are off-shoots of old standards that are beginning to adapt the PCIe interface [Industrial Board Formats & Manufacturers].
