New family of transimpedance amplifier for 10G,40G and 100G optical ethernet

GigOptix launched new family of Transimpedance Amplifier (TIA) for 10G, 40G and 100G receiver applications.
GigOptix's new TIA family details:

GX3101, a high gain limiting TIA for 10.3Gb/s Ethernet forlarge dynamic range applications
GX3110, a linear TIA with AGC for 11.3Gb/s SONET applications
GX3200, a limiting TIA for 100GBASE-LR4/ER4 low power compact applications
GX3220, a balanced linear TIA with AGC for 40G DQPSK and 100G DP-QPSK receiver markets.

"In one fell swoop, we are greatly expanding our addressable market and balancing our strong driver portfolio with an equally attractive and complete set of products for the receive side," said Julie Tipton, Vice President of Marketing. "This complete portfolio has been driven by our customers seeking better solutions than those currently available in the market. The opportunities are tremendous as there are few companies delivering these challenging designs. We believe these products can be an important engine of growth for us in 2010."

"These demanding new designs were possible due to the close collaboration between the GigOptix-Helix team in Zurich and the high speed design team in Palo Alto," stated Joerg Wieland, Vice President and General Manager of GigOptix-Helix. "We were able to blend the skill sets of both design groups to create these best in class products. This demonstrates our successful and synergistic integration of the two entities under the GigOptix umbrella."

As per Ovum's recent industry analysis, the annual total available market for TIA is 8.8 Million units in year 2009 and it is expected to grow to 35Million units by year 2014.
