Brite Semiconductor, Naneng Microelectronics, and PLDA Collaborate to Release Complete PCIe 2.0/3.0 Solution

Shanghai, China — Dec 11, 2018 -- Brite Semiconductor (“Brite”), a world-leading ASIC design service and DDR controller/PHY IP provider headquartered in Shanghai, China, today announced their collaboration with Naneng Microelectronics and PLDA to deliver a complete PCIe 2.0/3.0 solution based on SMIC’s 40nm and 55nm process technology.

Guosheng Wu, CEO of Naneng Microelectronics, said, “Collaboration between Naneng and Brite can effectively reduce the risks and costs of SoC design by providing a low power consumption and small-area PCIe-2.0/3.0 solution based on SMIC’s 40nm and 55nm process, that meets the latest PIPE specifications and supports 2.5G and 5G data rate. We are looking forward to working with Brite to provide customers with a global solution that offers high performance and low cost, while complying with the relevant standards.”

"PLDA's PCIe Controller can be configured for PCIe PHY to comply with any standards, which offers customers a great deal of flexibility in the choice of PHY," says Arnaud Schleich, CEO of PLDA. “This evolving partnership with Brite provides high performance and low power consumption PCIe technology while reducing the risks of SoC integration - a must have for customers who need a complete solution for high-speed data transmission."

Dr. John Zhuang, CEO of Brite, said, “Brite’s collaboration with Naneng and PLDA to provide a PCIe solution based on SMIC’s 40nm and 55nm processes will enhance the SoC design capability for high-speed data transmission, reduce risks, and shorten time to market on communication, cloud computing, and automotive SoC chip design.”
