NetLogic Microsystems is one of first companies to tape-out and sample multiple silicon products in TSMC’s advanced 40nm technology node. NetLogic Microsystems is currently sampling its NLP2040 and NLP3040 PHY devices, the industry’s first single-die quad-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) PHY devices, both of which are manufactured in the advanced 40nm process to deliver the highest performance and lowest power consumption for next-generation switches, routers and blade servers addressing the data center, enterprise networking, storage and service provider markets. NetLogic Microsystems will also be taping out its next-generation knowledge-based processor, the NL11000 device, in TSMC’s 40nm process. The NL11000 knowledge-based processor will offer significantly higher performance, lower power and cost advantages as a result of the close collaboration with TSMC. This collaboration extends upon the long-standing relationship between TSMC and NetLogic Microsystems on the use of advanced cost-effective half-node technologies, including 55nm, 80nm and 110nm…
