Credo Launches Short-Reach Micro-Transmitter Optics Standardization Group at OCP

Credo Technology Group Holding has launched the Short-Reach Micro-Emitter optics (SRMO) Workstream within the open compute project (OCP). With industry partners, Credo will develop specifications for high-speed data center interconnects, addressing the need for interoperable interconnects as wide, parallel micro-emitter technology drives new form factors across rapidly evolving scale-up and scale-out fabrics in AI data centers, according to the company. The specification, Credo said, will address requirements for link power, efficiency, signaling, parallelism, physical form factors including module and connector footprint, link budget, and compliance. Micro-emitter technology brings new ways of moving volumes of data, while...
