The UltraAthenaCORE Extended Long-Reach (XLR) Multi Standard SerDes (MSS) IP is a high-performance, area and latency optimized, DSP-based PHY. It is a highly configurable IP that supports all leading edge NRZ and PAM data center standards from 10 Gbps to 224 Gbps, supporting diverse protocols such as 10/25/50/100/200 Gbps Ethernet and UALink.
UltraAthenaCORE leverages high- performance A/D converters to digitize incoming data over copper or fiber. UltraAthenaCORE Master Controller uses patented signal processing techniques to recover the signal, while optimizing both power and latency.
