 in the 400Gb/s to 800Gb/s market. We have begun production of next-generation products targeting 1.6Tb/s and are developing and prototyping various advanced technologies aiming at 3.2T/s, as well as co-packaged optics (CPO) and integrated laser applications for the future. Additionally, we have recently released design kits for a 300mm version of our SiPho platform, which offers performance advantages and additional capacity.
RF CMOS
 
Many RF products today are built using RF CMOS technology on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) substrates (RFSOI). These RFSOI process technologies include devices optimized to deliver higher performance and improved isolation compared to those in bulk RFCMOS processes. We currently utilize RFSOI process technologies at 0.18 micron, 0.13 micron and 65 nanometer lithography nodes to fabricate various devices, including antenna switches with record figures of merit (FOM) and front-end modules, which are integral to state-of-the-art products, such as modern smartphones.
 
 Power and Power Management ICs
 
Our power technologies are divided into low-voltage BCD offerings and high-voltage offerings, including 140V Resurf, 200V SOI, and 700V ultra-high voltage technologies. Our low-voltage BCD process technologies offer more features than advanced analog CMOS processes and are well-suited for power and driver semiconductors, such as voltage regulators, battery chargers, power management products, and audio amplifiers. These technologies generally incorporate higher voltage CMOS devices than advanced analog CMOS processes, such as 5V, 8V, 12V, 40V, and 60V (Breakdown Voltage) LDMOS devices, and in the case of BCD, bipolar devices integrated into an advanced analog CMOS process. We currently offer BCD technologies at 0.18 micron on 200mm wafers and 65 nanometer on 300mm wafers.
 
Our higher voltage technologies on 200mm wafers, which include 140V Resurf, 200V SOI, and 700V ultra-high voltage platforms, support applications such as gate drivers for discrete high-power transistors and the automotive, industrial, AC adapter, and lighting markets.
 
In addition, we have developed a unique NVM solution (Y-Flash) specifically for power and power management applications on our 0.18 micron and 65nm platforms
