Standards-Compliant 112G PHY for Linear Optics: Driving Efficient AI Infrastructure
Linear optics are the path to scaling AI interconnects beyond 800G — cutting DSP and retimer overhead to reduce power, latency, and thermal load. Synopsys has developed the industry's first 112G PHY IP compliant with OIF-CEI-112G-LINEAR-PAM4, with measured TX/RX results meeting and in several cases exceeding the spec. Download the whitepaper for full characterization data.
What you'll learn:
- Why linear optics matter now — up to 50% module power savings and lower thermal load in dense AI racks
- What OIF-CEI-112G-LINEAR-PAM4 standardizes — a repeatable, interoperable ecosystem
- How Synopsys 112G PHY performs — TX VMA, jitter, eye-closure, and RX JTOL against CEI limits
- What this unlocks — DSP-less host-to-module connectivity, scalable to 224G/448G and CPO
