Sivers Semiconductors AB, a global leader in photonics and wireless technologies, announced a strategic collaboration with GlobalFoundries (GF), to develop advanced silicon photonics solutions for the high-growth AI infrastructure market.
Sivers Semiconductors’ laser arrays will be integrated into reference designs built on GF’s silicon photonics platform. The collaboration supports a range of optical connectivity architectures, including co-packaged optics (CPO), linear pluggable optics (LPO), and other emerging data center interconnect solutions. Sivers’ laser arrays will also be available in GF’s Silicon Photonics Co-packaged Advanced Light Engine (SCALE™) platform for next-generation optical sub-assemblies and light engine architectures. GF’s SCALE CPO solution combines integrated photonic devices, coarse and dense wavelength-division multiplexing (CWDM, DWDM) and advanced packaging enablement to improve bandwidth density and system scalability.
