As data center and wireless communication technologies advance, the role of analog Clock and Data Recovery (CDR) systems is evolving to meet new challenges. While the transition to 50Gb/s PAM4 signaling initially shifted the industry toward digital signal processor (DSP) -based solutions to address signal integrity challenges, analog retimer technology continues to offer a viable and advantageous path forward for 100Gb/s per lane interconnects and beyond. This approach provides significant benefits, including lower power consumption and lower latency than traditional DSPs.
In his presentation titled “Reimagining High-Speed Interconnects: 100Gb/s Analog CDR Technology for Data Centers and 6G Fronthaul,” on February 25 at 5:00 PM local time, Mr. Khan will explore the cutting-edge innovations in analog CDR technology and its transformative impact on data center interconnects and next-generation wireless architectures.
With over 15 years of experience in the semiconductor industry, Mr. Khan oversees Semtech strategy, product line development and market development for integrated circuit (IC) solutions for optical transport needs within the wireless market. This includes the Tri-Edge™ 50G PAM4 product portfolio and ClearEdge® 25G product portfolio for the emerging 5G wireless market, as well as the FiberEdge™ 10G product portfolio for the 4G wireless market.
