Global Unichip Corp. (GUC), a leading provider of advanced ASIC solutions, announced that its 3nm HBM3E Controller and PHY IP have been adopted by a major cloud service provider and several high-performance computing (HPC) companies. The cutting-edge ASIC is expected to tape out this year, featuring the latest 9.2Gbps HBM3E memory technology.

In the same announcement, GUC highlighted its active collaboration with HBM suppliers like Micron, stating it is developing HBM4 IP for next-generation AI ASICs.

GUC noted that its joint efforts with Micron have demonstrated the ability of GUC’s HBM3E IP to achieve 9.2Gbps with Micron’s HBM3E on both CoWoS-S and CoWoS-R technologies. Test chip results from GUC show successful PI and SI outcomes, with excellent eye margins across temperature and voltage variations at these speeds.

Moreover, when GUC’s HBM3E IP is integrated with Micron’s HBM3E timing parameters, it improves effective bus utilization, further boosting overall system performance.

“We are thrilled to see our HBM3E Controller and PHY IP being integrated in CSP and HPC ASICs.” said Aditya Raina, CMO of GUC. “This adoption underscores the robustness and advantages of our HBM3E solution, which is silicon-proven and validated across multiple advanced technologies and major vendors. We look forward to continuing our support for various applications, including AI, high-performance computing, networking, and automotive.”

“Memory is an integral part of AI servers and foundational to the performance and advancement of data center systems,” said Girish Cherussery, senior director of Micron’s AI Solutions Group. “Micron’s best-in-class memory speeds and energy efficiency greatly benefit the increasing demands of Generative AI workloads, such as large language models like ChatGPT, sustaining the pace of AI growth.”
