Phison Electronics is extending its series of PCIe 5.0 and CXL 2.0 compatible redriver and retimer data signal conditioning ICs. The solutions have the capability to integrate in both Intel- and AMD-based platforms for applications such as artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI+ML), edge computing, high-performance computing, and many data-intensive needs. “Phison has focused industry-leading R&D efforts on developing in-house, chip-to-chip communication technologies since the introduction of the PCIe 3.0 protocol, with PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 5.0 solutions now in mass production, and PCIe 6.0 solutions now in the design phase,” said Michael Wu, President & General Manager, Phison US.

NAND flash has been available for more than three decades. Today it’s used everywhere, from gaming consoles to mobile phones to server farms in data centers. You can find the technology in solid state drives (SSDs), USB drives, audio and video flash media devices, and much more. As NAND technology evolves and adoption increases across different market segments, it’s easy for people to pick up on bits of misinformation along the way and start believing things about NAND flash that are no longer—or never have been—true.

In the manufacturing process, engineers typically come up with a design that eventually marketing people will roll out to encourage businesses and end users to adopt into their particular space. This approach seemingly works for those who do not have the means or resources for custom creations that may better suit them. 

Phison Electronics today announced that it will be showcasing its lineup of PCIe Gen4 SSD solutions at the Flash Memory Summit August 6-8 in Booth No. 219 at the Santa Clara Convention Center.
