Advantest and OpenLight, specialist for heterogeneous silicon photonics integration and custom Photonic Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (PASIC) design, announce their plans to partner and develop solutions for scalable, high-volume silicon photonics testing.
As AI and high-performance computing workloads grow, data centers are increasingly adopting silicon photonics and co-packaged optics technology to deliver the bandwidth, latency, and power efficiency required by next-generation AI applications.
To support this shift, Advantest will work with OpenLight to address the challenges of high-volume electro-optical device (e.g., Optical Engine) testing. Through this collaboration, Advantest and OpenLight aim to establish an end-to-end test solution for high-volume manufacturing, enabling scalable production of next-generation silicon photonics devices and accelerating the adoption of optical interconnect technologies for data centers and high-speed networking applications.
