Photonic Products

Built on decades of compound-semiconductor design and manufacturing expertise with manufacturing based in Southern California, Semtech's Photonic Products span the full optical signal chain: light sources for transmission (distributed feedback (DFB) laser chips), light amplification (gain chips and semiconductor optical amplifiers), and light detection (PIN and avalanche photodiodes). Semtech’s photonics platform supports the explosive demand for data center scale-up, scale-out and scale-across optical interconnects including NPO and CPO solutions up to 3.2 Tbps. Semtech’s vertically integrated InP wafer fabrication, in-house epitaxial growth, and rigorous reliability testing enable Semtech to deliver best in class optical components engineered for high quality, high performance, and cost efficiency at scale.

Semtech's photonics capabilities serve data center, AI connectivity, telecom, access, and optical sensing applications worldwide, supporting customers building next-generation transceivers, tunable laser assemblies, silicon photonics engines, and passive optical network (PON) equipment.
