Milestone for embedded serdes IP
Agilent Technologies has shipped its 10 millionth embedded serdes channel as part of its ASIC offerings for storage, enterprise computing and network equipment manufacturers.
Avago's broad embedded serdes offering includes cores configured for use in 4 and 8Gbit/s Fibre Channel, XAUI/CEI, PCI-Express and SAS/SATA applications.
Avago's ASIC capability is based on a heritage of high transistor ASIC designs with extremely high serdes channel count.
Previously, Avago integrated 96 x 3.125Gbit/s transmit and receive channels on a single CMOS chip.
"Offering proven, fourth-generation serdes as well as the ability to ship millions of complex, reliable devices establishes Avago as a leader in embedded serdes ASICs", said James Stewart, Vice President and General Manager of Avago Technologies' Imaging Solutions Division.
"Our latest shipping milestone is a testament to the exceptional efforts of our design teams and our manufacturing, test, packaging and assembly partners to ship large production volumes while maintaining the highest level of product quality".
Avago Technologies' embedded serdes ASIC development model provides support throughout the entire product life cycle.
It incorporates testing capabilities as early as the definition of system-level architecture and accounts for in-circuit manufacturing test, functional test, system turn-on and debug, and field diagnostics.
With this model, Avago enables equipment manufacturers to develop high-bandwidth networking and storage systems with superior reliability and reduced size, complexity and cost. Request free introductory details about products from Avago Technologies ...
