Integrated InfiniPHY(TM) Device Rounds Out Cypress's Portfolio of Solutions for WAN Line Cards, Including Serial Links, Programmable Clocks, Multi-Port Memories, CPLDs, and Packet Accelerators

SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2000-- Cypress Semiconductor (NYSE: CY - news), building on its established capabilities in high-speed data communications solutions, today introduced its InfiniPHY(TM) transceiver, a
fully-integrated, 2.5 Gbps Physical Layer Transceiver for high-speed InfiniBand(TM)-based architectures. InfiniBand
technology relieves data bottlenecks and dramatically enhances the performance of wide-area networks, storage networks and high performance servers by replacing traditional bus architectures with a switch fabric solution.

``The CY7B9260V is the first in a full line of high-speed, InfiniBand-compliant devices that will advance Cypress's strategy of providing an entire line card solution,'' stated Dan Morris, vice president of Cypress's WAN segment. ``Our product portfolios for high-speed networking and storage systems now include high-speed serial links, programmable high-performance clock buffers and generators, multi-port memories, complex programmable logic devices (CPLDs), and high-performance packet accelerators.''

``With this InfiniBand transceiver, we strengthen our position in the market for the high-performance solutions needed to bring today's high-speed communications systems to the next level,'' said Christopher Norris, vice president of Cypress's data communications division. ``Our InfiniPHY transceiver takes advantage of our core competencies in high-speed physical layer and programmable logic devices.''

The CY7B9260V operates at 2.5Gbps and integrates transmitter, receiver, clock and data recovery (CDR) circuit, SERDES, and 8B/10B encoder-decoder in a single chip. It supports InfiniBand-compliant byte alignment and link training sequence, thereby ensuring interoperability. The device features superior jitter performance to ensure robust system operation.

Availability, Pricing and Packaging

Samples of the CY7B9260V transceiver and evaluation boards will be available in the fourth quarter of 2000. Production
volumes of the device will ship early in the first quarter of 2001, priced at $95 for quantities of 1,000. The CY7B9260V is packaged in a 456-ball, thermally-enhanced BGA package.
