$MRVL keeps giving me reasons to look beyond custom silicon. Today it introduced a new 3.2T retimer and a second-generation 1.6T AEC DSP. Both are sampling with customers. Marvell says the new AEC chip supports copper connections beyond six meters, twice the reach of its predecessor. That’s an attractive business to me. More complex racks create more problems Marvell can get paid to solve. It also means more competition for $CRDO. I own both, but I’m watching customer adoption closely.
