MoSys Introduces the First in a Family of Gigabit Ethernet Intellectual Property for ICs
Proven Technology Enables Fast Macro Integration of GigE PHY Technology into a Range of Consumer and Networking ICs
SUNNYVALE, Calif. --, Nov. 1, 2007 -- MoSys, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOSY), a leading provider of high-density embedded memory and mixed- signal intellectual property, (IP) solutions, today announced availability of a Gigabit Ethernet Physical Layer (PHY) on copper semiconductor IP. The product is the first of the company's GigaCell(TM) family of IP targeted at the Wide, Local, and Storage Area Networking markets. Proven in silicon form, the IP is available as a GigE PHY macro suitable for integration in numerous port configurations.
"The announcement of our high-performance Gigabit PHY is our first strategic move into the mixed-signal IP market," stated Max Bathaee, Director of Mixed-Signal Marketing at MoSys. "In the past, availability of high performance network products was limited to a few vendors due to the complexity of mixed-signal designs. This IP will enable our customers to develop advanced, highly-integrated networking SoCs for a broad range of applications including wireless networks, Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP), Network Switches, Backbone, Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), and LAN on Motherboard (LoM) solutions."
The MoSys Gigabit PHY IP supports IEEE-defined 10/100/1000 BASE-T Ethernet over Category 5 (CAT 5) twisted pair cables and 10/100 BASE-T Ethernet over CAT 3, 4, and 5 cables. The Gigabit PHY is currently designed in a low power 130nm CMOS and can be readily ported to 65nm and 45nm processes. MoSys offers a multi-port Gigabit PHY with up to 8 integrated ports ready to be integrated with a System-on-Chip (SoC).
The Gigabit Ethernet PHY IP is available now to pure play foundries, IDMs and fabless semiconductor companies.
