Emcore and Corona cross license - Business - Corona Optical Systems Inc - Brief Article

EMCORE Corp. and Corona Optical Systems announced a cross licensing agreement for parallel optical transmitters and receivers. The agreement provides EMCORE an exclusive license to manufacture and sell OptoCube 40 parallel optical transmitter and receiver modules. In return, Corona has obtained a license to manufacture and sell EMCORE's Model 9512 twelve-channel parallel optical receiver and transmitter modules.

Corona's OptoCube 40 transmitter and receiver modules provide full electrical-to-optical conversion in a compact 13mm X 13mm package. Each module features 12 optical channels operating at speeds up to 3.35 gigabit-per-second, per channel (Gb/s/ch), resulting in an aggregate throughput of over 40 Gb/s. With its low, compact profile, OptoCube 40 provides more gigabit per square centimeter throughput than any other module currently available. The small size allows system designers to develop smaller, more efficient systems. The devices support standard surface-mount (SMT) manufacturing processes and are offered in pick-and-place compatible trays. The OptoCube 40 modules have a reach of 300m over standard bandwidth multimode fiber at maximum speeds of 3.35 Gb/s/ch.

EMCORE's 9512 transmitter and receiver modules also provide an aggregate throughput up to 40 Gb/s over 300m with full SNAP12 MSA compatibility. EMCORE's high-speed 9512 transmitter and receiver modules also support conventional DC JTAG boundary scan per IEEE 1149.1, and the IEEE P1149.6 AC-coupled JTAG boundary scan.
