OpenLight 1.6T platform reduces manufacturing costs with a fivefold increase in efficiency

The OpenLight 1.6T PASIC platform has a huge, beneficial impact on the operation and capital equipment costs for silicon photonics, chip manufacturers.

OpenLight uses heterogeneous integration technology to allow multiple, passive and active components to be integrated on to the same, silicon photonics chip. This removes the need to source, package and assemble separate, discrete components to make the chips, hugely reducing the ‘touch time’ of its production and assembly processes.

Manufacturers can benefit from a staggering, fivefold increase in efficiency and capacity from the same machines and assembly lines. This allows them to scale more easily and meet the huge and growing, global demand for 1.6T, optical solutions.
