Wireless InfrastructurePMC-Sierra provides a complete portfolio of off the shelf ASSP devices that enable wireless service providers today to deploy scalable, feature rich 2G, 2.5G and 3G wireless equipment optimized for both ATM and IP traffic. Single-chip CPRI and OBSAI solutions for standards-based transport of multiple air interfaces including WCDMA, CDMA2000, TD-SCDMA, and WiMAX.
Fiber to the Home - Passive Optical NetworkPMC-Sierra is the only supplier to support both EPON (IEEE 802.3ah Ethernet in the First Mile) and GPON (ITU-T G.984) standards. PMC-Sierra's gigabit PON products are based on the robust GigaPASS™ FTTH Architecture that achieves sustained gigabit and greater data rates while providing a powerful 32-bit programmable processing engine executing the real-time operating system, middleware and application-specific firmware required for high performance FTTH network access functions.
Digital Home and Business SolutionsPMC-Sierra is providing the foundation to build a transparent digital home experience with higher levels of integration and interoperability for mass adoption. With carrier grade gateways, NAS and VoIP solutions for residential and work centers, PMC-Sierra is an enabler to support the core VoIP, IPTV, Media, and Data services. Voice over IP DevicesPMC-Sierra's Multi-Service Processor family of MIPS-based devices are ideal for residential and enterprise VoIP applications. These highly-integrated, VoIP-enabled SoCs enable low cost solutions for single-channel residential voice gateways through to 16 channel enterprise Integrated Access Devices (IADs). Our best-in-class voice processing firmware enables vendors to provide PSTN-quality voice in the presence of the adverse network conditions expected in Internet-based VoIP services.
MIPS-basedTM ProcessorsPMC-Sierra pioneered 64-bit MIPS-basedTM processors spanning a broad range of applications from Internet routing equipment and enterprise switches to network printers and set-top boxes. When you partner with PMC, you're working with key members of the original MIPS design team,a team that has taped out more MIPS devices than anyone else.
Laser and Multi-Function Printer ChipsGet to market with the performance you want, with the low power you need and save on costly design resources when you upgrade, with scalable MIPS-Powered microprocessors from PMC-Sierra. Pin Compatible and software upgradeable from 300 MHz to 1 GHz. Proven MIPS-Powered solutions used by many of the world's leading manufacturers of laser printers and multi-function printers (MFPs).
SERDES and Retimer DevicesPMC-Sierra SERDES and Retimer devices enable highly reliable and cost effective serial backplane solutions. Our serial characterization technology and production test technology enable us to be the low risk supplier of high speed serial products. PMC-Sierra serial products support protocols including: PCI Express (PCIe), Serial RapidIO (sRIO), Gigabit Ethernet (GE) and 10 Gigabit Ethernet (XAUI), 1, 2, 4, and 10 Gigabit Fibre Channel (FC), Infiniband (IB), OBSAI and CPRI, SMPTE 292.
