A member of the Nephos Taurus family. CIG stands for Cambridge Industries Group.
Perhaps noteworthy, the Taurus family is a chiplet design. The specs don't say this,
but I suspect that the SERDES are separate from the body of the switch ASIC and added in sufficient
number to provide the ports required for each family member. A full
design package was submitted to OCP.
The OCP submission also included a slide show that contains the size of the packet memory. |
