Rambus and GLOBALFOUNDRIES to Deliver High-Speed SerDes on 22FDX® for Communications and 5G Applications

32G PHY will deliver power efficiency and performance for
next-generation wireline and wireless infrastructure

SUNNYVALE, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/5G?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#5Glt;/agt;–Rambus
Inc. (NASDAQ: RMBS), a leading provider of semiconductor and IP
products, today announced the availability of 32G
Multi-protocol SerDes PHY on GLOBALFOUNDRIES
22nm FD-SOI (22FDX®) platform for high-volume, high-performance
applications. Designed to meet the performance requirements of
high-speed wireline, wireless 5G infrastructure and data center
applications, the SerDes PHY delivers data rates up to 32 Gbps and
supports multiple standards including PCIe 4.0, JESD204B/C, CPRI, and
Ethernet.

“Boasting increasingly high performance and network density, Rambus 28G
and 32G SerDes will be critical to 5G infrastructure, wireless base
stations and remote radio heads, autonomous vehicles, data center
optical switches and highly anticipated technologies like artificial
intelligence and machine learning inferencing, smart cities, and more,”
said Hemant Dhulla, vice president and general manager of IP Cores at
Rambus. “By developing our high-speed interfaces on GF’s leading 22FDX
process, we are able to deliver the high performance alongside reduced
power and area required for these applications.”

“Rambus and GF have a long history of delivering leading-edge solutions
on our processes,” said John Kent, vice president of IP at
GLOBALFOUNDRIES. “Working together with Rambus enables us to provide our
clients with power and area optimized high-speed SerDes interfaces to
deliver leadership system solutions, while maintaining compatibility
with industry standards.”

The 28G and 32G Multi-protocol SerDes (MPS) PHY is designed with a
system-oriented approach, taking the interface, interconnect and channel
into account when optimizing performance and features to maximize
flexibility in today’s most challenging system environments and
applications. These comprehensive high-speed SerDes IP solutions are
optimized for power and area in long-reach channels typical of
communications, networking and data center applications — making this
PHY ideal for challenging high-performance wireline and wireless
infrastructure environments.
