M/A-COM Tech Displays new products at Fiber Optics Expo

In booth 29-35 at the Fiber Optics Expo (FOE) tradeshow in Tokyo, Japan (11-13 April 2012), M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc of Lowell, MA, USA (which makes analog semiconductors, components and subassemblies for RF, microwave and millimeter-wave applications) is showcasing its portfolio of new products for optical communications and networks.

Products on display include two new modulator drivers and transimpedance amplifiers (TIAs) for 10G, 40G, and 100G systems.

The MAOM-002204 100GbE modulator driver is an ultra-low-power integrated quad-channel driver that includes four 28G EML drivers in one surface-mount package.

The firm’s portfolio of 100G coherent modulator drivers has been developed for 100G DP-QPSK applications. The drivers are available as single- or dual-channel in surface-mount packages, or as a quad-channel in a GPPO package, such as the new MAOM-003105, which has low power consumption (4W for four channels @ 6Vpp) and gain of more than 30dB.

Both the MAOM-002204 100GbE and MAOM-003105 100G DP-QPSK 4-channel modulator drivers were launched at March’s Optical Fiber Communication Conference & Exhibition/National Fiber Optic Engineers Conference (OFC/NFOEC 2012) in Los Angeles.
