There is nothing analog about the IO die. It interfaces the memory, and the system's busses like PCIe. They are all digital.

- tutanchamun 8y agoSorry, I've meant analog circuitry, which I've read again and again about on CPUs - see below as one example. And it was also mentioned in some articles about the IO die on Zen 2. > Intel’s analog designers are responsible for creating circuits such as PLLs (for clocking) and PCIe (for I/O) that are critical for modern SoCs on a process that isn’t optimized for analog https://www.realworldtech.com/intel-22ffl-process/ https://www.realworldtech.com/intel-22ffl-process/
- rasz 8y agoits all analog at that level
- Dylan16807 8y agoYeah, anything measured in GHz going off-chip is well into analog signal processing territory.
