1.25 Gbps-16 Gbps HSS for Supporting Multiple Protocols

The 12.5 Gbps to 16 Gbps high-speed SerDes (HSS) is compatible with multiple industry protocols.

Overview

The 12.5 Gbps to 16 Gbps high-speed SerDes (HSS) is compatible with multiple industry protocols. The PHY has 1-lane, 2-lane, and 4-lane versions for flexible applications. Additionally, HSS supports wide range datarates and multiple parallel data width. HSS also includes 3-tap programmable TX FFE, CTLE, and VGAs to maintain signal integrity across complex PCB environments. Multiple debug methods such as embedded eye monitor, BIST test, and boundary scan are provided to facilitate bug locating.

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.
