The Benefits of a Multi-Protocol PMA

At Silicon Creations, we have developed a power and area optimized, flexible and programmable PMA (Physical Medium Attachment) architecture that can be reliably ported to different process nodes and scaled across protocol generations as data rates increase. It is called the Multi-Protocol PMA, or MP-PMA for short.

Optimized Clocking Solutions for High-Performance Die-to-Die Interfaces

The economics of a system-on-chip ASIC have evolved over the last decade, driven by forces such as cost to yield a transistor, wafer defect density and chip yield, and the drive for greater performance and efficiency. As process nodes continued to shrink from 28nm down to 3nm, we observed Moore’s Law begin to break down, and the cost to yield 100 million transistors normalized to 28nm was either flat or, arguably, increased.

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.
