The GigaChip™ Alliance is an ecosystem of semiconductor suppliers collaborating to promote and further the development of the GigaChip Interface, an open, royalty-free interoperable high-speed serial chip-to-chip communications interface standard for high-speed networking systems. Developed by MoSys, Inc., the GigaChip Interface is an open, CEI-11 compatible high-bandwidth, low-latency interface for reliable point-to-point communication of fixed-size frames over short distances. The GigaChip Interface is groundbreaking technology that has been developed specifically for serial chip-to-chip communications targeting high-speed networking applications. The GigaChip Alliance was founded in July 2010 by MoSys, Inc. GigaChip Alliance promoters consist of the leading companies Altera Corporation, LSI Corporation, MoSys, Inc., and Xilinx, Inc.
