Thine is ready to debut an optical DSP-less chipset supporting PAM4 64-Gbps for PCIe 6.0 at this month’s ECOC 2024 exhibition in Frankfurt, Germany. By eliminating DSPs from optical communication methods in knowledge facilities, the chipset reduces energy consumption by 60% and lowers latency by 90%.
Present superior optical communication methods for PCIe usually face challenges with excessive energy consumption and sign processing delays, notably with silicon-photonics lasers and DSP-equipped VCSEL drivers. To deal with these points, THine’s chipset for PCIe 6.0 integrates a VCSEL driver and transimpedance amplifier right into a DSP-free energetic optical cable (AOC) resolution.
This optical PAM4 64-Gbps chipset leverages THine’s analog expertise to get rid of DSPs from optical modules and end-point ASICs, attaining correct sign restoration and enhancements in energy effectivity. The complany additionally plans to develop a sophisticated optical chipset for PCIe 7.0.
A datasheet for the PAM4 PCIe 6.0 chipset was not out there on the time of this announcement.
