Seven years ago, I wrote about the eye-popping difference between retimers and redrivers. The central point was that a redriver boosts an impaired signal, while a retimer recovers the data, extracts the embedded clock, and retransmits a fresh copy of the data on a clean clock. That distinction is still accurate and directly influences design decisions; but it’s not the only factor!On… Read more
As the AI industry responds to demanding agentic and high-context inference workloads by adopting rack-scale and beyond architectures, data center operators are no longer managing a handful of high-speed links in isolation.They’re managing far larger populations of GPUs, DPUs, SSDs, FPGAs, NICs, switches, and signal conditioners in complex PCIe topologies. And these proliferating devices… Read more
