Corona Announces World�s First OC-768 VSR Transmitters and Receivers

Aug. 8, 2001
Corona�s modules feature a throughput of 40 Gbit/s in a 13 x 13-mm BGA package�roughly the size of a dime�which reportedly makes them the smallest parallel devices available.

Lombard, IL, August 8, 2001 � Corona Optical Systems Inc., which manufactures high-speed optoelectronic components and subsystems, today announced it has begun customer sampling of the world�s first OC-768 VSR parallel optical transmitter and receiver pairs. The optoelectronic devices facilitate efficient, high-speed optical connections in communications and data networking equipment. Corona�s modules feature a throughput of 40 Gbit/s in a 13 x 13-mm BGA package�roughly the size of a dime�which reportedly makes them the smallest parallel devices available.

Bryan R. Gregory, Corona President & CEO, stated, �Corona�s innovative, leading edge products enable OEMs to meet their bandwidth, density and manufacturability goals for tomorrow�s 40Gig systems.�

In addition to size, speed and reliability, Corona�s parallel optical modules feature a Pick & Place compatible BGA package. They are true surface mount devices and can be configured with multiple heatsink options. Corona�s devices can also be made available on Tape and Reel.
