Overview

Advanced switch supporting buffering of large amounts of data in external DDR RAM

The 1G deep buffering memory Ethernet Switch is an advanced Ethernet switching IP that supports buffering large amounts of data in external RAM. The non-blocking Ethernet switch IP core enables fine-grained traffic differentiation for rich implementations of packet prioritization, enabling per port and per queue shaping on egress ports.

The 1G deep buffering memory Ethernet switch IP from Comcores supports MAC learning, VLAN 802.1Q, multicast and broadcast as well as IEEE 1588 transparency. Each port provides a native interface for GMII Ethernet PHY devices.

Three Ethernet Design Challenges in Industrial Automation

As factories, process plants, and robotics platforms become increasingly intelligent and interconnected, the demand for stable, low-latency data links has pushed Ethernet deeper into embedded systems. However, since designing Ethernet connectivity into industrial chips comes with its technical and logistical hurdles, engineers may face challenges when implementing Ethernet in industrial designs.

Powering Scale Up and Scale Out with 224G SerDes for UALink and Ultra Ethernet

At the recent ECOC 2025 conference in Copenhagen, Cadence showcased its key role in enabling the future of AI infrastructure with live silicon demonstrations of several essential IP technologies for emerging 800G and 1.6T networks. Powered by Cadence's 224G SerDes IP, Cadence's Ultra Accelerator Link (UALink 1.0) scale-up and Ultra Ethernet scale-out networking solutions deliver the performance, flexibility, and interoperability needed for next-generation AI factories and hyperscale data centers.

Ultra Ethernet Security: Protecting AI/HPC at Scale

As artificial intelligence and high-performance computing (AI/HPC) reshape industries, the need for robust, scalable, and secure connectivity has never been greater. Built from tightly integrated CPUs, GPUs, and SmartNICs, today’s compute clusters demand high-throughput, low-latency networks that can scale from die-to-die to multi-rack deployments.
