Mannheim, Germany, May 28, 2026 — EXTOLL, a leading provider of high-speed and ultra-low-power SerDes and Chiplet connectivity, and Chip Interfaces, a leading supplier of digital IP cores are proud to introduce the industry´s first integrated UCIe IP solution (PHY and D2D Adapter) for GlobalFoundries’ (GF) FDX™ technology.
The customer-ready offering is based on EXTOLL´s PHY and Chip Interfaces´ D2D Adapter, which comes as a pre-integrated and co-verified platform to unlock unprecedented end-to-end die-to-die connectivity for mainstream technology nodes.
“Building on a highly successful collaboration with Chip Interfaces and GlobalFoundries, we are thrilled to bring our customers a powerful, timely solution that accelerates and simplifies their transition to chiplet-based systems, unleashing new levels of innovation and performance.”, says Dirk Wieberneit, CEO of EXTOLL. “By combining the exceptional mixed-signal performance of GF’s FDX technology with EXTOLL’s leading-edge UCIe IP, we’re delivering real solutions for optimized chiplet-based systems that can evolve with the growing demand for faster, reliable and more secure connectivity.”
The IP is optimized for standard packaging, with full support for organic substrates across standard-defined bump pitch ranges. Designed and rigorously verified for interoperability, it empowers customers to develop differentiated systems based on the UCIe v2.0 standard.
The D2D Adapter for UCIe is a scalable layer between protocol components and the UCIe PHY, enabling efficient data transfer across the UCIe Link. It minimizes main data path logic for low-latency Flit transport and supports ARB/MUX functionality for multiple simultaneous protocols, including CXL. For Raw BER above 1e-27, it implements the UCIe-defined CRC and Retry scheme to ensure reliable transport for PCIe, CXL, Streaming, and other protocols.
“The D2D Adapter for UCIe combined with the UCIe PHY form a complete UCIe solution ready to support any protocol layer. The offering consists of two IP parts the D2D adapter from Chip Interfaces and the UCIe PHY from Extoll”, says Anne Voss Winther CEO of Chip Interfaces.” Chip Interfaces is happy to partner with Extoll on UCIe technology to create a complete solution for our customers.”
GF’s FDX platform offers superior RF/Mixed-Signal performance, power efficiency, and full System-on-Chip (SoC) integration to deliver compact, versatile solutions for always-on, intelligent and connected devices across a wide range of applications. The platform includes Auto Grade 1 qualification, and embedded non-volatile memory (eNVM) solutions, providing exceptional design flexibility and rugged reliability for technologies in the automotive, communications infrastructure and SATCOM markets. The FDX platform is manufactured at GF’s advanced facilities in New York and Germany, ensuring a geographically diverse and reliable supply chain for customers. radiation-hardness by design
“We are delighted to see EXTOLL, in partnership with Chip Interfaces, deliver the industry’s first integrated UCIe solution on our FDX platform that will unlock new capabilities for our customers designing advanced chiplets for next-generation systems spanning Physical AI, Edge AI, automotive, SATCOM and more,” said Sudipto Bose, vice president of product management for GF’s FDX technology.
The addressable market is broad, spanning Edge AI, Physical AI, robotics, aerospace and defense, as well as medical and automotive applications.
