MACOM Announces a Chip-Set Solution for 100Gbps Onboard Optics Applications
MACOM's MALD-37345 and MATA-37344 is the first chip-set optimized for onboard 100Gbps optical transceivers
This chipset addition to MACOM's portfolio of short reach VCSEL drivers and TIAs is a next generation evolution of currently shipping MALD-37045 and MATA-37044, with the new chipset eliminating the need for Clock Data Recovery (CDR). This new chipset is backwards pin compatible with MACOM's industry leading MALD-37045 and MATA-37044 devices, enabling customers with the ability to mix and match parts to include or not include a CDR for extreme flexibility.
"We extended our existing portfolio of VCSEL drivers and TIAs with the
additions of the MALD-37345 and MATA-37344. These devices, while
optimized primarily for on-board optics, are still able to support
active optical cables and optical modules," said
The VCSEL driver of the MALD-37345 includes programmable eye-shaping features and an input equalizer. The high-sensitivity TIA of the MATA-37344 features selectable bandwidth to support up to 28.05Gbps and lower speed legacy data rates, as well as an output driver with programmable output swing and 2-tap de-emphasis. Both devices are available in 2 mm x 3 mm die form, supplied in waffle packs, whole wafers or quartered wafers.
"Increasing data rates on the PCBs creates signal integrity and thermal
constraints due to concentration on the optical IO at the front panel,"
said
MACOM's portfolio of VCSEL drivers and TIAs will be shown at ECOC 2016,
