We Did It

The company hit an important milestone - we just demonstrated a 150GHz flip-flop! For you non techies, that's toggling between a one and zero at 150 billion times a second.

Holy hell... that's way faster than my 386. I guess Moore's law still has a few iterations left. What's the fastest that you guys have in a comercial product?

That flip-flop was done in InP, and that set a(most assuredly short lived) world record. The next phase is to integrate with that technology and start designing a chip.

To date, our fastest DAC samples at 1.6GHz. Our Demultiplexer we're working on now is designed for a throughput of 1.2 Tb/s - yes, that's terrabits.

Wow - a DAC that runs at 1.6GHz??? That's some HIGH QUALITY audio you have there (or maybe you're just playing it back too fast).

An A/D at 1.6GHz would be even more impressive.

Working on it. 10 bit 1GHz, 8-bit 3Ghz, and 6-bit 6GHz ADCs on the way.
