Semtech Corporation, a high-performance semiconductor, IoT systems and Cloud connectivity service provider, announced the successful demonstration of a 200G per lane (200G/lane) optical transmission link enabled by Semtech’s latest FiberEdge 200G PAM4 PMDs and Broadcom’s latest generation DSP PHY.
In collaboration with Keysight Technologies Inc., Semtech and Broadcom will be conducting a live demonstration based on Semtech’s state-of-the-art FiberEdge 200G PAM4 EML Driver and TIA and Broadcom’s leading-edge 5nm 112GBd PAM4 DSP platform in Semtech’s booth #1901 and Broadcom’s booth #6425 at the Optical Fiber Communication (OFC) 2023 exhibition in San Diego, California from March 7 to 9.

With the ever-increasing demand for faster data processing and communication, Semtech’s FiberEdge 200G PAM4 PMDs, combined with Broadcom’s new 200G/lane DSP, provide the ideal solution to meet the high bandwidth requirements of next-generation data centers, delivering unprecedented levels of performance, bandwidth, speed and reliability for data communication systems. Further, it is a highly scalable solution enabling optical modules to support data rates up to 3.2 Tbps. Rapid deployment of the next generation of 51.2T switches in data center networks and high-performance computing is contingent on the maturity of optics based on next generation 200G/lane optical modules.
“We are very excited to collaborate with Broadcom and Keysight in this joint demonstration that showcases Semtech’s 200G PMDs and their interoperability with Broadcom’s cutting edge 200G/lane DSP and Keysight’s latest 200G equipment,” said Nicola Bramante, senior product line manager for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Products Group. “The demonstration proves the performance of a 200G/lane ecosystem, paving the way for the deployment of next generation’s terabit optical transceivers in data centers.”
