MoSys to Showcase Serial Packet Processor Offload Engines with FPGA and 100G Low Power CDR Products Enabling Added Throughput, Density, and Intelligence for Networking Systems from 100G to Terabit per Second at DesignCon 2015

Bandwidth Engine Devices and LineSpeed PHYs Solve Memory Bandwidth and Data Throughput Bottlenecks for Network Equipment by Reducing Area, Power and Economics

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — January 28, 2015 — MoSys (NASDAQ: MOSY):

 

Who:

MoSys (NASDAQ: MOSY), a leader in semiconductor solutions that enable fast, intelligent data access for network and communications systems, is exhibiting, supporting ecosystem partner demonstrations, and participating in the panel discussion, Will the Optical Backplane Ever Happen?, at DesignCon 2015. The company is also introducing its IC Spotlight™ Analyzer software toolkit developed for networking system designers to debug and perform on-chip analysis of high-speed serial I/O channels connected with Bandwidth Engine® serial memory and LineSpeed™ 100G data path devices, enabling rapid system bring up and evaluation.

 
Product, Technology and Show Highlights:

 • MoSys Bandwidth Engine IC Eliminates Memory Bottlenecks with serial GigaChip® Interface.

o MoSys® Bandwidth Engine 2 – Burst (MSR620) device delivering over 140Gbps data throughput on only 8 SerDes transceivers connected to the Altera® Arria® 10 FPGA Evaluation board.

o Dual Bandwidth Engine devices providing double the memory capacity of 1152Mb on the Xilinx® Virtex®-7 FPGA and a robust 15.6G interface to Xilinx Kintex® UltraScale™ FPGA.

 

• MoSys LineSpeed PHY ICs Deliver Signal Integrity and Low Power for modules and Line Cards.

o LineSpeed 100G Low Power Retimer (MSH110) and 100G Gearbox (MSH310) performing full duplex 4x25G traffic over passive QSFP28 copper cable from multiple vendors enables 100G QSFP, CFP4 and CFP2 modules.

o A product technology demonstration will take place at FCI booth #817, featuring the extended reach ability of LineSpeed 100G PHYs by driving high-speed signal transmissions at 25/28G across an AirMAX VSe® connector and an FCI backplane using a LineSpeed 100G Multi-Mode Gearbox (MSH310).

 

• MoSys’ IC Spotlight Analyzer development environment will be demonstrated with Bandwidth Engine and LineSpeed products.

 

• MoSys will participate in the panel discussion, Will the Optical Backplane Ever Happen? John Monson, vp of marketing and sales for MoSys, will join panelists from Cisco, Intel, Google and Juniper Networks, to address the opportunities and challenges for optical backplanes as Moore's Law continues to drive for higher signaling rates.

 

What:

Taking place annually in Silicon Valley, DesignCon is the premier educational conference and technology exhibition for electronic design engineers in the high speed communications and semiconductor communities.

 

When:

DesignCon 2015 takes place January 27-30; Expo is January 28-29.

 

Where:

Santa Clara Convention Center

5001 Great America Parkway
Santa Clara, California 95054
 
MoSys’ demonstrations and product information will be available at MoSys booth #848. The MoSys-FCI joint demonstration will be available at FCI booth #817. The panel discussion, Will the Optical Backplane Ever Happen, takes place on Thursday, January 29, from 2:00-2:40pm at the Chiphead Theater.
 

About IC Spotlight

MoSys’ IC Spotlight™ Analyzer toolkit allows system designers to focus on product development with a powerful and easy to use analysis and debugging tool for high-speed serial I/O channels on either Bandwidth Engine serial memories or LineSpeed 100G data path products. IC Spotlight connects to a MoSys product through a sideband SPI, MDIO, or I2C port and takes advantage of on-chip resources for rapid product bring up, configuration and analysis. One of the many capabilities allows developers to measure bit-error rates (BER) measurements on multiple channels while monitoring and adjusting high-speed serial transceiver parameters in real-time. The graphical user interface of IC Spotlight supports point and click macro recording while those who prefer command line have access to a python shell with scripting capabilities.
