SAN JOSE, Calif. -- K-micro (Kawasaki Microelectronics America), a leader in advanced ASICs, and Anritsu announce the development of the first test tool and methodology to analyze 10Gbps Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) chips. The successful test of K-micro’s CTXL1 10G EPON SerDes chip using Anritsu’s MP1800A Signal Quality Analyzer paves the way for 10G EPON systems to be shipped.

Precise measurements of K-micro’s CTXL1 10G EPON SerDes chip demonstrate its innovative burst mode lock time of '20nsec.' “We have worked with Anritsu, a company well-respected for its technology test solutions, to develop testing for EPON chips because our customers are ready to implement EPON applications and need to know that the chips meet the specifications for the products,” said Vijay Pathak, CTO at K-micro.
