News 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne announces the industry-first optical DSP-less 64Gbps PAM4 chipset for PCIe6.0, saving power by 60%, lowering latency by 90%

2024.09.10 Release

TOKYO (September 10th, 2024) – 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne Electronics, Inc. (Tokyo Stock Exchange: 6769, “金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne”), a global leading fabless semiconductor supplier who provides innovative mixed signal LSI and analog technologies as well as valuable AI/IoT-based solutions and AI/data servers, today announced it has developed the industry-first optical DSP(digital signal processor)-less chipset supporting PAM4 (pulse amplitude modulation 4-level) 64Gbps (giga-bit-per-second) for PCIe6.0 and will exhibit such demonstration on ECOC2024 (https://www.ecocexhibi金年会官网入口在线登录网址on.com/), Europe's largest exhibition in 金年会官网入口在线登录网址e fibre optic communication technology industry, held from September 23rd to 25金年会官网入口在线登录网址, in Frankfurt, Germany.

金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne’s optical chipset enables to save power consumption by 60% and to lower latency by 90%, by removing DSPs from optical communication systems in data centers. Many types of existing advanced optical communication with PCIe have bottle necks in large power consumption. For example, silicon-photonics types’ external modulation lasers consume large power, existing vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) driver types’ DSPs as well. In addition, DSPs have certain delay issues for their digital signal processing.

To breakthrough these problems, 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne has developed 金年会官网入口在线登录网址s new chipset that consists of VCSEL driver and trance impedance amplifier (TIA) for DSP-less active optical cable (AOC) solution with PCIe6.0 by 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne’s state-of-art analog-based technology.
金年会官网入口在线登录网址s industry-first optical PAM4 64Gbps chipset has achieved accurate signal recovery performance by evolving 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne’s analog technology, removing DSPs from optical modules of data transmission and even from end-point ASICs. Compared with other types of optical communication, 金年会官网入口在线登录网址s DSP-less solution can drastically reduce power consumption as well as removing delay by DSPs from the systems.

“Wide penetration of generative AI derives tremendous increase of electrical power consumption in data centers and 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne’s analog-based chipsets, removing optical DSPs from optical communication in data centers, can provide one of effective solutions by saving power by 60%,” said Yoichiro Minami, President and COO of 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne Electronics, Inc. “With 金年会官网入口在线登录网址s solution data centers can also lower latency in optical communication by 90% that results in improving response time for AI processing. In addition, 金年会官网入口在线登录网址ne also plans to develop an advanced optical chipset for PCIe7.0 consequently.”
