Designs custom and merchant networking, storage and AI-interconnect chips for data centers and telecom.
Designs custom and merchant networking, storage and AI-interconnect chips for data centers and telecom.
Sells standard chips for data-center networking, storage and optical links, and also custom chips designed jointly with one cloud company for that customer alone, a design-in that takes years to win and then ties both sides. Data centers have become its largest market, overtaking its older storage and carrier businesses. Fabless: TSMC makes its chips.
Moat: narrow (customer qualification, process know-how, IP / patents). Deep co-design partnerships with hyperscalers for custom AI chips create high switching costs once designed in.
