Addressing High-End Connectivity Needs
Hyperscale Data Center
The rapidly growing requirement within hyperscale data center operations for high-speed connectivity for processing drives their need to take advantage of economies of scale, attain a greater internal control over technology, and increase service differentiation. To ensure their silicon meets expected performance, they have been relying on third-party silicon IP providers like Alphawave Semi.
Data Networking
In a typical data center, data is transmitted between compute and storage devices through switches, routers and interface cards using copper or optical cables. Alphawave Semi provides solutions for all these critical high-speed interconnection points.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
As AI models become more complex and multi-layered, they consume an increasing amount of compute, storage and networking resources. Interface connectivity can be a key bottleneck for AI chips and may prevent AI systems from reaching their full performance potential. Alphawave Semi’s silicon IP solutions solves this connectivity challenge.
Storage
As data processing requirements in data centers continue to grow, so does the proliferation of high-performance storage—particularly solid-state drives that are based on flash memory. These interface speeds require high-performing and reliable SerDes IP, like those provided by Alphawave Semi, to avoid performance bottlenecks related to external connectivity.
5G
An important part of the evolving wireless infrastructure architecture necessitates a build-out of a greater number of antenna units interconnected through “front-haul” links. Because of this architectural separation, a significant strain is put on the wireline network requiring very low-latency reliable connectivity. Every interface has to keep up with evolution of high-performing specialized wireless integrated circuits such as transceiver and baseband units and support a variety of standards, which Alphawave Semi IP has solutions for.
Autonomous Vehicles
Advanced driver assistance systems, in-vehicle infotainment and autonomous driving systems are driving the need for interconnected cameras, sensors (such as LiDARs and RADARs), displays and on-board processors. High-speed wired connectivity is key to moving this data from sensors to processing nodes and interconnecting the automotive components with low latency and resilience to noise and interference under harsh environments. Alphawave Semi has proven IP that meets these challenging requirements.
