About Marvell
Marvells semiconductor solutions are the essential building blocks of the data infrastructure that connects our world. Across enterprise cloud and AI and carrier architectures our innovative technology is enabling new possibilities.
At Marvell you can affect the arc of individual lives lift the trajectory of entire industries and fuel the transformative potential of tomorrow. For those looking to make their mark on purposeful and enduring innovation above and beyond fleeting trends Marvell is a place to thrive learn and lead.
Your Team Your Impact
As Generative AI continues to advance the performance drivers for data center infrastructure are shifting from systems-on-chip (SOCs) to systems of the era of Accelerated Computing data center bottlenecks are no longer limited to compute performance but rather the systems interconnect bandwidth memory bandwidth and memory capacity. Marvel/Celestial AIs Photonic Fabric is the next-generation interconnect technology that delivers a tenfold increase in performance and energy efficiency compared to competing solutions.The Photonic Fabric is available to our customers in multiple technology offerings including optical interface chiplets optical interposers and Optical Multi-chip Interconnect Bridges (OMIB). This allows customers to easily incorporate high bandwidth low power and low latency optical interfaces into their AI accelerators and GPUs. The technology is fully compatible with both protocol and physical layers including standard 2.5D packaging processes. This seamless integration enables XPUs to utilize optical interconnects for both compute-to-compute and compute-to-memory fabrics achieving bandwidths in the tens of terabits per second with nanosecond latencies.
This innovation empowers hyperscalers to enhance the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of AI processing by optimizing the XPUs required for training and inference while significantly reducing the TCO2 impact. To bolster customer collaborations Celestial AI is developing a Photonic Fabric ecosystem consisting of tier-1 partnerships that include custom silicon/ASIC design system integrators HBM memory assembly and packaging suppliers.
