CompoundTek today successfully delivered prototypes targeting 200G/lane data transmission rate to two lead data-center customers. These products target next-generation 1.6T optical transceivers and extend the capabilities of silicon for pluggable transceivers and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) in datacenters.

The products were manufactured using CompoundTek’s advanced silicon photonics process with 193nm ArF lithography and copper interconnects, proven 1n mass production. CompoundTek supports MPW and dedicated runs that enable customers to rapidly prototype designs and proceed to mass production with high yields.
