MACOM’s New MAOP-L284CN L-PIC™ Integrates
Lasers with Silicon Photonic Integrated Circuits
M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier
of high-performance RF, microwave, millimeterwave and photonic
semiconductor products, today announced the MAOP-L284CN, a silicon
photonic integrated circuit integrated with lasers (L-PIC™) for a
100G transmit solution for CWDM4 and CLR4 applications.

MACOM's MAOP-L284CN features four high
bandwidth Mach-Zehnder modulators integrated with four lasers
(1270, 1290, 1310, and 1330 nm) and a CWDM multiplexer, with each
channel operating at up to 28 Gb/s.
To meet the explosive growth of data traffic driven by video and
mobile, major Internet content providers, such as Amazon,
Microsoft, Google and Facebook, are building hyper-scale
datacenters, which require high-speed interconnect solutions that
are power efficient, compact and cost optimized. MACOM’s Etched
Facet Technology (EFT) lasers are attached to the Silicon PIC using
its proprietary Self-Alignment process (SAEFT™) with high coupling
efficiency, offering a power efficient solution at reduced
manufacturing cost.
MACOM’s MAOP-L284CN features four high bandwidth Mach-Zehnder
modulators integrated with four lasers (1270, 1290, 1310, and 1330
nm) and a CWDM multiplexer, with each channel operating at up to 28
Gb/s. The L-PIC™ operates on a standard single mode optical fiber,
and includes integrated tap detectors for fiber alignment, system
initialization and closed loop control. A single fiber aligned to
the output edge coupler of this 4.1 x 6.5 mm die is the only
optical requirement for implementing this device into QSFP28
transceiver applications. MACOM is also offering the MASC-37053A
modulator driver integrated with CDR, matched with this L-PIC™ for
optimized performance and power dissipation.
“Silicon-based photonic integrated circuits, or PICs, enable
integration of optical devices such as modulators and multiplexer
onto a single chip. We believe that MACOM’s L-PIC™ solves the key
challenge of aligning lasers to the silicon PIC with high yield and
high coupling efficiency, making the adoption of Silicon PICs a
reality for high-speed optical interconnects within the
Datacenter,” said Vivek Rajgarhia, Vice President of Strategy,
High-Speed Networking, for MACOM.
MACOM’s L-PIC™ will be on display for private demonstrations at
OFC 2016, Booth #3101, March 22-24th in Anaheim, CA. To make an
appointment, contact your local sales representative. For more
