About Blue Cheetah
Blue Cheetah provides highly optimized, rapidly customized die-to-die interconnect IP. Our chiplet interconnect IP solutions are configurable for packaging type, data rate, I/O configuration, process, and more. They are optimized to meet your application’s power, performance, area, and latency requirements. Our BlueLynx technology is based on the Bunch of Wires (BoW) open die-to-die (D2D) interface from the Open Compute Project (OCP) and supports Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe). Our solutions support both standard organic chip packaging and advanced packaging technology.
Solutions & Technology
Blue Cheetah generates state-of-the-art in-package, die-to-die communications solutions for the chiplet ecosystem. Our revolutionary BlueLynx ™architecture enables configurable and portable IP. This approach provides customizable tapeout ready designs with optimized Power-Performance-Area (PPA) at drastically reduced time-to-market.
BlueLynx
BlueLynx technology revolutionizes the game in silicon design and engineering. Using proprietary technology, Blue Cheetah eliminates inefficiencies inherent in traditional silicon design processes while maintaining complete integrity. We deliver predictable results that are rapidly configurable (responding to dynamic customer needs), optimal (best-in-class Power-Performance-Area), and predictable (silicon integration-ready) – without compromise.
BlueLynx technology algorithmically captures our world-renowned silicon architects’ knowledge and work, unbinding them from the manual traditional design processes that have bottlenecked the industry for decades. Free from the conventional inefficiencies of silicon design, Blue Cheetah engineers can quickly produce parametrized die-to-die PHY interface solutions – saving time and enhancing innovation.
BlueLynx™ technology captures designer intent as code and enables customized solutions with the assurance of silicon-proven IP.
