Supplier of electro-optic and electronic components, GigOptix has unveiled new Transimpedance Amplifier (TIA) and driver devices for 100 G optical communication systems.
The company offers 100 G Dual Polarity Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (DP-QPSK) systems that are suitable for long haul and metro Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) optical communication networks.
The 100G DP-QPSK systems utilizes four data streams of up to 32 Gb/s to create one 100 Gb/s optical data stream. It offers a full set of solutions to consumers to deploy in the 100 G optical communication system.
GigOptix offers dual and single channel bandwidth-tunable receiver TIAs that deliver minimal noise and low power performance for better receiver sensitivity. In addition, the company offers quad and single channel 32 Gb/s transmit amplifiers that have high interoperability with 100 G Mach-Zehnder Modulators (MZM) used in 100 G field deployed systems.
The driver product line from GigOptix consumes minimum power ad provides enhanced signal integrity and performance within a compact form factor. The dual and single channel solutions provide economical second-generation solutions, while the quad channel driver is integrated in a GPPO connectorized module that delivers optimum performance.
