OakGate CD280-G5 tests High-Performance, Data-Intensive CXL Memory Devices at Scale

LOOMIS, Calif., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Teledyne LeCroy, a global leader in protocol test and measurement solutions, proudly announces the OakGate CD280-G5 CXL validation test solution for PCIe 5.0-based Compute Express Link (CXL) memory expansion devices. This next-generation test solution verifies performance and functionality of CXL 2.0 memory devices, accelerating their time-to-market while ensuring high reliability.

Meeting the Demands of AI and Big Data

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data is driving the shift towards heterogeneous computing, where multiple processors work in parallel to process vast amounts of data. CXL, an open standard interconnect supported by PCIe 5.0, enables high-speed, low-latency communication between the host processor and devices such as accelerators, memory buffers, and smart I/O devices, expanding memory capacity and bandwidth to new levels of performance.

Ensuring Reliable Performance

Functional and performance validation testing is crucial to ensure CXL memory expansion devices meet the CXL standard prior to their release. The OakGate CD280-G5, designed in collaboration with data center architects as well as memory and chipset manufacturers can reliably ensure the intended performance is met.

“Micron’s collaboration with Teledyne LeCroy has helped mature the CXL compliance test ecosystem, in addition to strengthening our own CXL innovation and efforts to deliver the Micron CZ120 memory expansion module, the industry’s first CXL-compliant device in production,” said Siva Makineni, vice president of Advanced Memory Solutions at Micron. “Teledyne LeCroy’s CXL validation capabilities are playing an important role in ensuring the quality and compliance of our developing CXL 2.0 solutions. The new CD280-G5 CXL Validation Platform is enabling test and validation of advanced features to ensure broader industry adoption of CXL memory solutions.”

NANCHANG, China, Oct. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A report from Jiangxi International Communication Center (JXICC): The year 2026 marks the 400th anniversary of the birth of Bada Shanren. He was an outstanding master of Chinese calligraphy and painting. His works are treasures of traditional Chinese calligraphy and painting, embodying profound Chinese aesthetics and humanistic heritage, and exerting a far-reaching influence on international art.

Recently, the Event for the 400th Birth Anniversary of Bada Shanren “The Cosmos as Inner Heart: International Youth Step Into Bada Shanren’s World of Art” was held in Qingyunpu District, Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province— the hometown of Bada Shanren. Chinese and foreign youth representatives and guests from 19 countries and regions including the United States, Russia, Morocco, Turkmenistan and the Republic of Korea participated.

Brushstrokes Without Borders: A Cross-Cultural Art Dialogue

Four hundred years of ink transcends borders. Even with different cultural backgrounds and languages, people can transcend cultural differences and feel the resonance brought by art. Khollii, a Tajik student studying in Jiangxi, was captivated by the distinctive charm of Bada Shanren’s artworks and shared her story about brushstrokes, “This powerful personal expression aligns closely with the pursuit of individuality in Western modern art.”

Bada Shanren’s 400-Year-Old Inner Story Unfolds to Twin Students

Mexican twin international students Luis and Erick are studying in Jiangxi. At first, they were confused by Bada Shanren’s paintings, depicting fish and birds with upturned eyes amid expansive blank spaces. After learning about the artist’s life, they sensed the unyielding emotion in his brushwork. They hope to act as a cultural bridge, sharing the timeless charm of this Jiangxi master’s art with global audiences.

Why We Still Appreciate Bada Shanren’s Works Today

Why do we still appreciate Bada Shanren’s works today? As a foreigner, Mickie from Panama has her answer. To understand Bada Shanren’s works do not need mastery of classical Chinese, thorough knowledge of the complex history of the Ming Dynasty, or deep research into every detail of his life. “Simply feeling the emotions conveyed in his paintings can spark a spiritual dialogue across hundreds of years.”
