PCI SIG

The pci-sig is the industry organization chartered to develop and manage the pci standard. With over 800 members, the pci-sig effectively places ownership and management of the pci specifications in the hands of the developer community. A board of directors comprised of nine people, each elected by the membership, leads the pci-sig. The pci-sig is chartered to: (1) maintain the forward compatibility of all pci revisions or addenda. (2) contribute to both the establishment of pci as an industry-wide standard and to the technical longevity of the pci architecture. (3) maintain the pci specification as a simple, easy-to- implement, stable technology that supports the spirit of its design. The pci-sig fulfills its charter by continuing to promote innovation and evolve the pci standard to meet the industry's needs. Through interoperability testing, technical support, seminars and industry events, the pci-sig enables its members to generate competitive and quality products.
