Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) designs and supplies semiconductor and infrastructure software solutions for networking, telecommunications, and consumer electronics.

On March 25, Broadcom announced that it has expanded its 200G/lane DSP PHY portfolio with the introduction of Sian3 and Sian2M, designed to improve AI/ML cluster connectivity. These DSPs optimize power usage in both single-mode and short-reach multi-mode fiber links for 800G and 1.6T optical transceivers.

Sian3 is a 3nm 200G/lane PAM4 DSP and it improves energy efficiency for 800G and 1.6T transceivers using single-mode fiber, reducing power consumption by over 20% compared to its predecessor. On the other hand, Sian2M is tailored for short-reach multi-mode fiber links, integrating VCSEL drivers and using Broadcom’s 200G VCSEL technology to boost efficiency.

With AI workloads driving demand for higher bandwidth, these advancements support scalable, low-power optical connectivity. Broadcom is providing early access to customers, with Sian3 set for production in Q3 2025.
