Lanqi Technology: the goal of PCIe 5.0Retimer chip by the end of the year is to complete the research and development of mass production version

CTOnews.com August 10 news, investor relations activity records show that Lan Qi Technology recently accepted institutional research, said that the company PCIe 4.0 Retimer chip sales revenue of 12.2 million yuan in 2021, achieving a substantial breakthrough of zero to one.

Lan Qi Technology pointed out that from the perspective of the industry, in the short term, the ecology of PCIe 4.0 has just started, and the overall scale of the industry is not large. Looking to the future, it is generally believed that the demand for PCIe 4.0related devices will gradually increase this year. At the same time, the mainstream server CPU that supports PCIe 5.0will be put on the market this year, and the demand for related devices will enter the start-up period, which will also drive the demand for PCIe Retimer chips, which will lead to the improvement of PCIe 5.0ecosystem and the commercialization of related products. Therefore, from a medium-term point of view, the whole industry is still very optimistic about the PCIe Retimer chip market.

Data show that in January 2022, PCI-SIG officially released the final specification of PCI Express 6.0. compared with PCIe 5.0, the transmission speed doubled again, from 32GT / s to 64GT / s. In June, 2022, PCI-SIG released the PCIe 7.0specification, which increased the transmission speed to 128GT / s.

CTOnews.com learned that Lanci also said that in 2021, the company's PCIe 5.0 Retimer chip had completed the streaming of engineering samples and device and system-level test evaluation, and began sending samples to customers and partners for interoperability testing. By the end of 2022, the goal of the company's PCIe 5.0Retimer chip is to complete the research and development of a mass production version.
