Credo's SerDes PHY solutions are pivotal in enabling high-performance interconnects for custom ASICs and advanced signal processing applications. Specifically engineered to balance performance with power efficiency, these solutions leverage unique, patented DSP architectures that can be implemented using mature process nodes, thereby maintaining cost efficiency without compromising on quality. The design flexibility allows the seamless integration of SerDes PHY into various ASIC platforms, making it ideal for complex digital signal processing and AI tasks.
Credo’s SerDes PHYs are available as both licensed IP and chiplets to cater to a broad spectrum of customer needs. These solutions are also adaptable, capable of accommodating a range of signaling, from 112G to 56G, in various modes like PAM4 and NRZ. The architecture is further configured to support diverse operating conditions, ensuring compatibility across different fabrication technologies and design scenarios.
The adaptability of SerDes PHY makes it highly suitable for integration into multiple platforms such as Multi-Chip Modules (MCM) and 2.5D interposers. This characteristic simplifies the design process for high-speed interconnects and assists in overcoming conventional barriers associated with the same-process logic and SerDes integration. As a result, Credo enables more accessible and economically viable solutions for pioneering ASIC designs that demand robust performance and scalability.
