Cypress Announces 65-nm 72-Mbit QDRII SRAMs Support for New NFP-32xx Family of Network Flow Processors from Netronome Systems
The combination 65-nm 72-Mbit QDRII SRAMs and NFP-32xx Family of Network Flow Processors provides an efficient platform to enable the convergence of servers and networking in next generation unified computing architectures. The NFP-32xx is the first merchant silicon to remove performance barriers in unified computing architectures by integrating high-performance networking, security processing and I/O virtualization with general-purpose computing. The NFP-32xx is the only line of processors backward-compatible with the market-leading IXP28XX, creating a smooth transition for continued support. The 65-nm SRAMs also allow the NFP-32xx to fully utilize the LA-1 interface for latency critical applications in switches, routers, wireless infrastructure and more. Cypress’s QDR SRAMs are the industry’s first 65-nm devices to ship in volume. The 72-Mbit SRAMs feature the market’s fastest available clock speed of 550 MHz and a total data rate of 80 Gbps in a 36-bit I/O width QDRII device, using half the power of 90-nm SRAMs…
