Why Glasswing™

Do more with Chord™ signaling

The only USR SerDes IP proven in low-cost silicon, and capable of providing 1Tbps bandwidth at under one watt, Glasswing offers the power savings and reliability essential for networking, high-performance computing, AI and ML. So from online shopping to satellite communications, you can do so much more

Massive bandwidth

Glasswing can be tiled in both directions to deliver terabits of bandwidth between dies. At 25GB/s, Glasswing offers double the bandwidth of the current UCIe standard, at a fraction of the size

Supports large MCMs

Glasswing can tolerate exceptionally high levels of loss whilst maintaining signal integrity. So you can work with the largest MCMs efficiently, using corner turning and extended reach to expand your designs and integrate a far more complex collection of dies

Outstanding diagnostics

Glasswing’s built-in EyeScope shows you signal strength in real time. So you can debug and test links quickly and easily, with full confidence in the end signal quality

Complete feature list

500 Gbits/s of bidirectional throughput

1.04 pJ/bit or 1 Tbit/s per Watt

Beachfront bandwidth: 208 Gbit/s/mm die edge

6 dB insertion loss budget (40+ mm on GZ-41 substrate)

Standard 150 µm bump pitch, so no interposer required

Low, fixed latency

Native BER of 1E-15

Optional Forward Error Correction (FEC) can be implemented to improve BER well below 1E-20

PRBS pattern generators and loopback modes

Protocol agnostic

Built-in EyeScope and advanced diagnostics

Gradient background graphic.

Built in versatality

Divide your chip more flexibly

Assemble multiple dies or chiplets in the best configuration for your design

No interposer

Because Glasswing works with a substrate, you can save money by avoiding awkward silicon interposers

Scale down

Reduce the size of your largest die in order to enhance its yield or address reticle size limits

Existing ecosystem

You’re not on your own with Glasswing. There’s already a whole ecosystem of existing users to learn from and share insights

Glasswing™ - Ultra-Short Reach SerDes IP

                          High-density, low-power SerDes IP delivering 500 Gbit/s throughput for in-package and multi-chip module interconnects, without a silicon interposer.
