Silicon Photonics PICs

Now part of Credo, DustPhotonics’ advanced silicon photonics (SiPho) products power high‑speed, low‑power connectivity for optical solutions in data centers and AI systems.

A silicon photonics solution that improves link performance, reduces system cost and power, and supports volume ramp.

Boost Optical Performance

L3C™ improves laser-to-chip coupling efficiency, resulting in lower optical loss and improved link margin.

Cut Your BOM Cost

Fewer, simpler lasers reduce BOM costs while improving yield.

Reduce Power and Cooling

Reduced laser count and lower current drive cut overall power consumption.

Deploy an End-to-End SiPho Platform

Complete SiPho platform with active and passive components, laser integration, and fiber coupling.

Credo SiPho Products

Our silicon photonics chips deliver the optical connectivity that data centers and AI infrastructure demand. Built on proprietary L3C™️ laser attach technology, our PICs scale across every transceiver architecture, thermal environment, and reach requirement — so you get the exact solution your application needs, without compromise.

Making Silicon Photonics Simpler, More Efficient, and More Scalable

Getting light into a photonic chip is one of the hardest problems in silicon photonics, and it has a big impact on performance, cost, and energy use. Low Loss Laser Coupling (L3C™) technology provides an innovative approach to integrating off‑the‑shelf lasers directly onto silicon, delivering measurable advantages in performance, cost, power efficiency, and scalability.

L3C creates a smarter, more efficient way to connect lasers to photonic chips—unlocking better performance while making systems easier and more cost-effective to build.
