Follow our CTO blog at http://www.phyworks-ic.com/blog.php Phyworks’ analog and mixed signal ICs bring ultra high-performance to optical fiber and copper cable communications in datacom, storage and telecom systems throughout the world. Smaller form factor, low power, higher speed and of course lower cost - the demands of FTTh, LAN, SAN and WAN applications are tough. Phyworks’ groundbreaking range of chips meets them all. Phyworks’ transceivers and transimpedance amplifiers span the entire spectrum of data rates, from 1Gbps through to 10Gbps and its FTTh product line is the market leader in terms of value and performance. At 10Gbps, Phyworks’ unique equalization and clock and data recovery technology is the only to resolve all the problems of modal dispersion in multimode fiber and applied to twin-ax copper cabling, is changing the face of data center design. Phyworks is the first chip manufacturer to produce a chipset capable of tackling 10Gbps over 30m of thin gauge copper cable. Active twin-ax copper cables using a Phyworks equalizer/retimer achieve error free communication at a link cost that’s a third that of optical alternatives. Founded in 2001 by an experienced team seasoned in the optical communications sector, Phyworks has forged a reputation as a leading innovator in its field. A fabless company, Phyworks remains privately held and is headquartered in Bristol in the UK.
