Now, the industry's demand for data is exploding, driving cloud data center vendors to expand their solution offerings.MACOM USES its patented l-pic technology platform to develop products with high integration, high performance and low cost, to create CWDM4, FR4 and FR1/DR1 solutions that fully meet the MSA standard, and help customers transition from 100Gbps to 400Gbps and above.On March 20, 2019, MACOM Technology Solutions Inc. (" MACOM "), the world's leading supplier of semiconductor components, announced the introduction of maop-l564fp for 400g-fr4 applications.This is a four-channel silicon photonic integrated circuit (l-pic) with lasers, easy to assemble, calibrate and test, significantly reducing operational costs, helping customers easily transition from 100Gbps to 400Gbps, and reducing production costs.


MACOM's maop-l564fp is a 400g-fr4 application oriented product, equipped with CWDM laser, pam-4 modulator, CWDM multiplexer and monolithic monitoring photodiode.This product is perfect combination of high bandwidth and low power consumption characteristics, can be as high as 80 ° C temperature under the working conditions.

Vivek Rajgarhia, senior vice President and general manager of MACOM's optical wave business, said: "MACOM will continue to use the l-pic platform to provide fully optimized solutions for the cloud data center market, helping customers achieve applications of 100Gbps, 400Gbps and above."With MACOM's powerful portfolio of analog, photonic products and technologies, the new 400g-fr4 devices provide customers with high-performance solutions designed in advance to help them reduce overall costs, save investment, and shorten time to market.

The maop-l564fp USES the same pin layout as that of the previously released CWDM4 application maop-l284cn l-pic, and this compatibility allows customers to more easily scale from 100Gbps to 400Gbps.In addition, combined with the newly launched product equipped with the maom-005424 four-channel driver and the mamf-11097a PIC controller, MACOM is able to provide an optimized 400Gbps cloud data center application chipset solution.
