How a 16Gbps Multi-link, Multi-protocol SerDes PHY Can Transform Datacenter Connectivity

Increasingly, more of the focus on mobile has centered around cloud datacenters and the networking to get the data back and forth between these datacenters and the mobile device. Functions like voice recognition and mapping depend on the ability to split the functionality between the smartphone, for local processing like encryption and compression, and the back end, where a large number of servers can do the heavier lifting before returning the results.

One PHY, Zero Tradeoffs: Multi-Protocol PHY for Edge AI Interface Consolidation

The Cadence 10G multi-protocol PHY was architected to address this exact challenge. Designed to scale across multiple process nodes, it consolidates PCI Express (PCIe), USB, DisplayPort, Ethernet, and other interfaces into a single, compact, silicon-efficient block. What sets it apart is simultaneous multi-protocol support, which enables multiple data paths without duplicating hardware, requiring extra board connectors, or paying the area and power penalty of separate IP blocks.
