PCI Express 5.0 Switches

11.02.2021

Microchip has released the world's first PCI Express (PCIe) 5.0 switches, the Switchtec PFX PCIe 5.0 family. Next-generation appliances double the interconnect performance for high-intensity computing, networking, and NVM Express (NVMe) storage. The new products are compatible with XpressConnect sync restorers, which also support PCIe Gen 5.

Switchtec PFX PCIe 5.0 family switches can have from 28 to 100 lanes and up to 48 NTB bridges. Devices support hot and unexpected plugging and secure boot authentication. They also have a set of tools for debugging and diagnostics.

Microchip has additionally released a complete set of tools needed to develop end-to-end solutions based on new products. These tools include design documentation, reference design examples, evaluation boards, and other tools.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

New method for creating powerful batteries 08.05.2024

With the development of technology and the expanding use of electronics, the issue of creating efficient and safe energy sources is becoming increasingly urgent. Researchers at the University of Queensland have unveiled a new approach to creating high-power zinc-based batteries that could change the landscape of the energy industry. One of the main problems with traditional water-based rechargeable batteries was their low voltage, which limited their use in modern devices. But thanks to a new method developed by scientists, this drawback has been successfully overcome. As part of their research, scientists turned to a special organic compound - catechol. It turned out to be an important component that can improve battery stability and increase its efficiency. This approach has led to a significant increase in the voltage of zinc-ion batteries, making them more competitive. According to scientists, such batteries have several advantages. They have b ... >>

Alcohol content of warm beer 07.05.2024

Beer, as one of the most common alcoholic drinks, has its own unique taste, which can change depending on the temperature of consumption. A new study by an international team of scientists has found that beer temperature has a significant impact on the perception of alcoholic taste. The study, led by materials scientist Lei Jiang, found that at different temperatures, ethanol and water molecules form different types of clusters, which affects the perception of alcoholic taste. At low temperatures, more pyramid-like clusters form, which reduces the pungency of the "ethanol" taste and makes the drink taste less alcoholic. On the contrary, as the temperature increases, the clusters become more chain-like, resulting in a more pronounced alcoholic taste. This explains why the taste of some alcoholic drinks, such as baijiu, can change depending on temperature. The data obtained opens up new prospects for beverage manufacturers, ... >>

Ultrasound against cancer cells 04.01.2020

Most ultrasound treatments for cancer use high-intensity radiation to heat and destroy cells. In this case, special contrast agents can be used, which "mark" the tumor and allow you to focus the radiation in the desired area. However, heat to some extent harms healthy cells, and contrast agents act on only a small part of tumors.

Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) and the Beckman Research Institute (National Medical Center City of Hope, USA) have developed a cancer treatment method in which low-intensity ultrasound causes the destruction of the cellular skeleton of cancer cells, while neighboring healthy cells do not suffer. .

The Solid Mechanics Laboratory at Caltech previously developed a cancer treatment theory based on the idea that cancer cells are vulnerable to a specific frequency of ultrasound, which depends on the mechanical and structural properties of the tumor cells. The authors called the new approach, based on the isolation and destruction of cancer cells based on their physical properties, oncotripsy. Now, by reducing the intensity of the radiation and carefully selecting the frequency in accordance with the "target cells", researchers have experimentally destroyed several types of malignant human blood cells without harming healthy ones. It is like a skilled singer breaking a glass goblet while singing a particular note.

The new method uses precisely targeted low-intensity ultrasound and therefore provides a more selective and safer treatment. It does not require cancer cells to have unique molecular markers or to be located separately from healthy cells.

The scientists acknowledge that there are still many questions to be clarified, such as what the exact mechanism of action is and what exactly happens in a cell exposed to ultrasound, but consider the results to be very encouraging. They hope that over time, oncotripsy could be used to treat cancer along with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiation and surgery.
