The demand for high-bandwidth, low-latency networking solutions has never been greater. As artificial intelligence (AI) workloads continue to grow exponentially, and hyperscale data centers become the backbone of our digital infrastructure, the need for faster and more efficient communication technologies becomes imperative.… Read More
Electrical copper interconnects, once the backbone of data center networks, are facing growing challenges. Rapid expansion of AI and ML applications is driving a significant increase in cluster sizes within data centers, resulting in substantial demands for faster I/O capabilities. While the surge in I/O requirements is … Read More

I recently had the opportunity to attend a SemiWiki webinar entitled “Chip-to-Chip Communication for Enterprise and Cloud”. The webinar was presented by SiFive and explored chip-to-chip communication strategies for a variety of applications. In the first part of the webinar, Ketan Mehta, director of SoC IP product marketing… Read More
I wrote a while back about some of the more exotic architectures for machine learning (ML), especially for neural net (NN) training in the data center but also in some edge applications. In less hairy applications, we’re used to seeing CPU-based NNs at the low end, GPUs most commonly (and most widely known) in data centers as the workhorse… Read More
5G, the planned successor to earlier mobile network standards, holds all kinds of promise for new capabilities beyond LTE, but for a while seemed stuck in debate on exactly what the standard should cover. Several problems are apparent. A path to higher bit-rates is complicated because of spectrum shortage and fragmentation (plans… Read More
