Delivering industry-leading low noise performance less than 1.5 uA RMS typical and supporting bandwidth up to 35 GHz, MACOM’s MATA-03820 and MATA-03819 TIA family supports high throughput optical data links in a very low power profile, optimal for use in high density optical Data Center interconnects. Features include RSSI for photo-alignment and power monitoring, and I2C management interface for control of bandwidth, output amplitude, peaking, loss of signal (LOS), gain and other key parameters.

“Molex is excited to collaborate with MACOM. Leveraging MACOM’s technical support along with its broad portfolio of TIAs we are able to ensure the availability of industry leading 400G optical modules,” said Adit Narasimha, Vice President and General Manager, Molex Optoelectronics. “The low noise performance of MACOM’s TIA along with its flexible programmability, enable delivery of industry leading low bit error performance when implemented with a DSP for 400G modules.”

“In the rapid evolution to single fiber 100G and parallel fiber 200G and 400G connectivity, we believe that MACOM has again affirmed its leadership position in delivering the high-performance, power-efficient optical components needed to maximize bandwidth density in the Cloud Data Center,” said Marek Tlalka, Senior Director of Marketing, High-Performance Analog, MACOM. “MACOM’s MATA-03820 and MATA-03819 TIA family, complemented by a comprehensive portfolio of seamlessly-interoperable MACOM components, is helping our customers accelerate this transition.”

MACOM’s MATA-03820 and MATA-03819 TIAs are available to customers today in production quantities. For more information about the products, visit-
