Marvell Technology Group Ltd., together with its consolidated subsidiaries
is a fabless semiconductor provider of high-performance application-specific
standard products. Our core strength is developing complex System-on-a-Chip
(“SoC”) devices, leveraging our technology portfolio of intellectual
property in the areas of analog, mixed-signal, digital signal processing, and
embedded and standalone integrated circuits. We also develop integrated hardware
platforms along with software that incorporates digital computing technologies
designed and configured to provide an optimized computing solution. Our broad
product portfolio includes devices for storage, networking and connectivity.
We were incorporated in Bermuda in January 1995.
Storage
Hard Disk Drive Controllers
Hard disk drive ("HDD") controllers provide high-performance input/output
("I/O") interface control between the HDD and the host system. We
support a variety of host system interfaces, including Serial Advanced Technology
Attachment ("SATA") and Serial Attached SCSI ("SAS"), which
support the complete range of enterprise, desktop and mobile HDDs.
We are a leading HDD controller supplier and currently supply products to all
of the major hard drive manufacturers.
Our HDD controllers with advanced technology for HDDs provide a technological
advantage that enables a higher level of data storage on smaller form factors
and higher volumetric densities.
Our advanced HDD controller SoCs incorporate the latest Marvell IPs, using leading
advanced semiconductor process nodes.
Solid-State Drive Controllers
Our solid-state-drive ("SSD") controller SoCs are targeted at the
fast growing market for flash-based storage systems for the cloud, enterprise,
consumer and mobile computing markets. We support a variety of host system interfaces,
including SAS, SATA, peripheral component interconnect express ("PCIe"),
and non-volatile memory express ("NVMe").
We are a leading supplier of SSD controllers across a range of customers and
market segments.
Our advanced SSD controller SoCs incorporate the latest Marvell technology using
leading advanced process nodes.
Our SSD controllers are complemented by our fully featured SDK (software development
kit) and FTK (Full Turnkey software solutions.)
HDD Components
In fiscal 2017, Marvell re-entered the HDD preamps business. We are working
with a number of customers in developing and qualifying our components.
Data Center Storage Solutions
We develop software-enabled silicon solutions for enterprise, data centers and
cloud computing businesses. The solutions include SATA port multipliers, bridges,
SATA, SAS and NVMe redundant array of independent disk controllers and converged
storage processors.
Networking
Ethernet Solutions
Ethernet connectivity is pervasive throughout networking infrastructures built
for enterprise, small and medium business, home office, service provider and
data centers. Our Ethernet solutions address a wide variety of end-customer
products for those market spaces, from small, cost-effective appliances to large,
high-performance modular solutions.
Our Ethernet products include:
A broad selection of Ethernet switches with market-optimized innovative features,
such as advanced tunneling and routing, high throughput forwarding, and packet
processing that make networks more effective at delivering content. Our Ethernet
switch product portfolio ranges from low-power, five-port switches to highly
integrated, multi-terabit Ethernet SoC devices that can be interconnected to
form massive network solutions;
A broad selection of Ethernet physical-layer transceivers for both fiber and
copper interconnect with advanced power management, link security, and time
synchronization features that complement our Ethernet switch and embedded communication
processors; and
A family of single-chip network interface devices offered in ultra-small form
factor with low-power consumption and targeted for client-server network interface
cards.
Embedded Communication Processors
Our range of SoC-embedded communication processors provide multi-core ARM processor
architecture optimized to consume low power while simultaneously delivering
high-performance per watt. They provide a combination of I/O peripherals, including
Ethernet, SATA, SAS, PCIe and universal serial bus and are ideally suited for
a range of end-customer networking applications, such as home gateways, networked
storage, control plane applications, routers, switches and wireless access points
and base stations.
Connectivity
We offer a broad portfolio of connectivity solutions, including Wi-Fi, and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth
integrated SOCs. These products are integrated into a wide variety of end devices,
such as enterprise access points, home gateways, multimedia devices, gaming,
printers, automotive infotainment and telematics units, and smart industrial
devices. Our products are well-positioned to deliver low-power and high-performance
functionality with cutting-edge technologies, and to lead the fast-paced developments
of Wi-Fi 802.11 and Bluetooth standards. Our connectivity product portfolio
includes a single stream 1x1, as well as multi-stream 2x2, 4x4 and 8x8 multiple
input multiple output devices. We deliver both the radio control and processing
as well as the RF components for a complete customer solution.
