- Responding to increasing data traffic and requirement for power consumption reduction within 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴s -
- 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 has successfully developed a DFB laser diode chip with an industry leading 100mW output power.
- This is in response to demand for increased optical transceiver performance at 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴s.
- Higher output power contributes to reducing optical transceiver and 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 power consumption.
德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 Co., Ltd. (Head Office: 2-6-4 Otemachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Keiichi Kobayashi) successfully developed a DFB laser diode chip with an industry leading 100mW output.
Background
Following the widespread use of data communication services, including cloud services and 5G, data traffic volumes continue to increase. Intensity-modulation optical transceivers are widely used at 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴s. In recent years, silicon photonics technology(note 1), having significant benefits in terms of small size, high integration, low power consumption and low cost, have been broadly adopted. Many of these transceivers are equipped with DFB laser diode chips, providing a single-wavelength, 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 light source.
The performance of optical transceivers continues to increase along with the growth in data traffic. The former transmission speed was 400Gbps, but this is increasing to speeds exceeding 800Gbps, up to 1.6Tbps (Fig. 1). As transmission speed increases, the optical loss during high-speed, high-intensity modulation rises, making it necessary to have a DFB laser diode chip with increased output power. At the same time, the use of optical transceivers and other devices in the network equipment at 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴s and network base stations has increased, and the growing power consumption is becoming an important issue.
Details
As GAFAM and the other large IT companies continue to actively invest in 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴s, we are supplying DFB laser diode chips to multiple customers including optical transceiver manufacturers, where our products are highly regarded for their world class output power characteristics and reliability.
Using InP (Indium Phosphide,note 2) semiconductor chip technology experience accumulated over the years, we have successfully developed a DFB laser diode chip with 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 of 100mW - one of the highest in the world (Fig. 2). Through this new advancement, it will be possible to realize high performance optical transceivers that support at least 800Gbps large volume data communication, as well as respond to further growth in overall data traffic. Also, the creation of high performance transceivers using our 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 DFB laser diode chip as a key component should limit power consumption by the optical transceiver and reduce overall power consumption at the data center.
We plan to exhibit this new product 德赢ac米兰官方合作伙伴 European Conference on Optical Communication 2022 (ECOC 2022) scheduled to be held in Basel, Switzerland from September 19-22.
