SoC

Qualitas Semiconductor is the largest interconnect solution provider in Korea, leading in high-speed interface IP and SoC technology. They supply their own IC products for high-speed interconnect, including optical front-end and retimer, which include optical links. The optical front-end IC functions to convert high-speed electrical signals into optical signals and is designed to meet the requirements of wideband data transmission. Retimer serves the purpose of restoring signal integrity by compensating for high-frequency channel distortion in wideband signals. It ensures signal integrity in high-speed data communication and optical communication systems.

Optical Front-end IC

Developed the 4-channel 56GB/s optical front-end IC for ethernet AOCs

Optical front-end IC: The SoC that runs the light-emitting and light-receiving particles, the passive electronic elements
- LD Driver IC: Drives the light-emitting component (LD) to generate optical signals in response to current input.
- TIA IC: Converts and amplifies the fine current signals outputted by the light-receiving component (PD) into voltage signals proportional to the optical signals.
Developed with 14nm FinFET process to ensure lower power consumption and price competitiveness

Retimer IC

Developed Retimer IC for Ethernet AOC and optical transceivers.

Developed a 4-channel Retimer IC product utilizing 100Gbps PAM4 SERDES IP.
Developed with the 14nm FinFET process, securing a low-power solution optimized for AOC transceivers.
