Semtech joins XPO consortium for AI data-center optics

Semtech joined the eXtra-dense Pluggable Optics (XPO) multi-source agreement as a technology partner for AI data-center optical interconnects.

Move positions Semtech to supply 200G-per-lane modulator driver and transimpedance amplifier ICs for XPO transceiver development and volume deployment.

Participation targets higher bandwidth density with lower power as AI infrastructure shifts toward 200G-per-lane electrical optics in 2026.

Semtech expects its XPO-focused portfolio to support the ecosystem from early prototyping through production-scale rollouts.
