Press releases

“We are now an independent company.”

Stated Adam Carter, CEO, OpenLight, in an interview with embedded.com as its series A investment round completes.

Adam explained that OpenLight is no longer owned by Synopsys and Juniper Networks and is in the process of closing its series A, investment round.

This change allows OpenLight to accelerate product development, scale manufacturing, and create a photonic ecosystem for next-generation, high-speed data communications.

OpenLight’s Photonic Application Specific Integrated Circuits (PASIC) bring design enablement to the mass market, with its PDK (Process Development Kit), production services, and a wealth of PASIC support tools, such as Evaluations kits and PDK Samplers.

In addition, OpenLight’s integrated technology delivers optical gain on-chip, so there is no need to purchase separate lasers or add complex, expensive, external laser coupling into the silicon photonics PASIC designs.
