About us

Founded in April 2007 by Nick Weiner, the company's patent pending technology addresses the technical barriers created by the proposed, next generation serial links both within and external to personal computers. These mandate the use of equalizing receivers and require specialist know-how. Xintronix makes the practical implementation of high-speed, multi-gigabit data rates possible using low cost cables and low cost, low power silicon. These advances have been made using a combination of the company's novel signal processing and CMOS circuit implementation intellectual property.

Other founding employees are extremely high achievers whose in-depth experience includes 130 nm, 90 nm and 65 nm SerDes developments for SATA, PCIe, USB and Ethernet.

The company is currently engaged with the USB 3.0 Contributor Group in helping to define the specification for the SuperSpeed 5 Gbit/s version of this popular serial interface. Xintronix is currently designing and building ICs that will meet the demands of the next-generation serial links and expects to have products available early 2009.

Xintronix is based in Bristol, the heart of the UK's semiconductor industry and home to the largest concentration of silicon designers in Europe.
