Cadence Tapes Out 112G Long-Reach SerDes IP on Samsung Foundry's 7LPP Process TechnologyCadence Design Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CDNS) today announced the tapeout of 112G long-reach SerDes IP on Samsung (News - Alert) Foundry's 7nm Low Power Plus (7LPP) process technology. The Cadence® IP for 112G SerDes utilizes 4-level pulse amplitude modulation (PAM-4) and provides the highest speed data link solutions for data center and networking applications, enabling high-performance and cost-effective 100G, 400G and 800G networks. Cadence is ready to engage with customers immediately on next-generation compute server processor, machine learning accelerator and switch fabric system-on-chip (SoC) design enablement. For more information on the Cadence IP for 112G PAM-4 SerDes for the Samsung 7LPP process technology, please visit www.cadence.com/go/112gserdes7lpp. The data explosion in emerging IoT, video, automotive, artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G communications applications is pushing the limits of cloud data center server, storage and networking infrastructure. 112G SerDes IP doubles the data rate of 56G SerDes, delivering the same overall data throughput with half as many lanes and significantly less power consumption and heat dissipation, which directly reduces capital and operational expenses for cloud service providers. Additional benefits of the 112G SerDes IP optimized for Samsung 7LPP are as follows:
"We are working closely with Samsung Foundry to enable high-performance IP required for emerging cloud computing and data center applications. The deployment of 112G long-reach SerDes IP on the Samsung 7LPP process accelerates the adoption and deployment of cost-effective 100G and 400G networks," said Babu Mandava, senior vice president and general manager of the IP Group at Cadence. "In addition to 112G long-reach SerDes IP, we've also collaborated with Samsung Foundry to enable a broad set of high-performance IP including GDDR6 and HBM2 to address the needs of ML/AI applications, further accelerating design innovation in the industry."
