World's fastest CMOS DAC for next-neneration optical transport systems launched

Thursday, September 8, 2011 - 10:00 in Physics & Chemistry

Fujitsu Semiconductor Europe (FSEU) announces its first- generation 8-bit, 4-channel DAC in 40nm CMOS technology. With a sampling rate range of 55 – 65 GSa/s per channel, small footprint and low power (0.75W/channel), this technology supports long-haul optical transport systems providing data links of 100Gbps and higher over a single lambda. Complimenting the 40nm 55 – 65 GSa/s Fujitsu CHAIS ADC for 100Gbps coherent receivers, the new DAC also offers unparalleled ultra-fast sampling rates, high resolution, low noise and wide bandwidth signal generation for OTU4 signals.
