End-to-end Serdes Interconnect Solutions for Next-Generation Platforms

Technology Approach

Bandwidth requirements continue to grow due to demand from applications like big data, mobility, and cloud. Designers rely on Credo’s technology to accelerate throughput and deliver robust end-to-end signal integrity in next-generation platforms requiring single-lane rate 28G, 56G, and 112G connectivity.

Credo is a global innovation leader in Serializer-Deserializer (SerDes) technology. We have consistently broken through perceived technical barriers, delivering industry-leading speed, power and equalization. Our unique, patented mixed signal architecture is the foundation for connectivity solutions and robust IP offerings.

Our foundation rests on three technology pillars.
