Researchers develop super-fast internet chip
A research team from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has developed a super-fast chip that could advance broadband internet technology.
The multiplexer chip is the first of its kind to be developed using the quantum effect of resonant tunnelling diode, according to the Korean Ministry of Education, Science and Technology.
The integrated circuit chip built at the University laboratory has an operating speed of 45Gb/s, while using roughly 75 per cent less energy than the previous version. The speed enables the transfer of about 4 full-length movies in one second.
The best operational broadband Internet services provide users with data transfer speed of 40Gb/s while most other high-speed online connections offer 10Gb/s.
