Optical Communications

GigOptix provides a comprehensive portfolio of high performance, low power solutions for the traditional Optical Networking Telecom and Datacom markets, as well as the emerging Optical Interconnect Datacenter and Consumer markets. GigOptix leverages its legacy in broadband high-speed Microwave RF IC design to create a portfolio of high performance broadband drivers for Mach-Zehnder (MZ) and Electro-Absorption (EA) modulators, low power VCSEL drivers, as well as limiting and linear Transimpedance Amplifiers (TIAs) spanning 10G, 40G and 100G speeds. GigOptix is also first to market with its Thin Film Polymer on Silicon electro-optical polymer modulator technology that promises to improve the performance of optical modulators by significantly reducing power consumption and shrinking the size of the device.
