About EXTOLL
EXTOLL develops semiconductor interconnect intellectual property, meaning pre-designed circuit blocks that other chip makers license. Its products include SerDes (high-speed serial links between chips), UCIe chiplet interfaces for connecting small dies inside one package, and a network-on-chip design. It says its digital-centric architecture targets mainstream 12 to 28 nm manufacturing processes with low power use. EXTOLL GmbH is headquartered in Mannheim, Germany. A founding year could not be confirmed from the sources checked.

What EXTOLL works on
Interconnect & Networking
Interconnect is the set of links that move data between chips, between boards and between racks. It includes wires on a package, cables inside a server, and the network switches and optical fibre across a data center. A processor is only as useful as the speed at which it can get data in and out.
Custom Silicon
Custom silicon means a company designs its own chips for its own products or data centers instead of buying standard parts. The chip is made by a foundry such as TSMC, but the design belongs to the customer.
