TS9802 Enables Real-Time Link Diagnostics and Reliable Deployment of Low-Power Linear Optics for AI Infrastructure
LOS ANGELES: #HighSpeedConnectivity--OFC 2026 -- TeraSignal, a leader in intelligent interconnect technology, today announced that its TS9802 Intelligent TIA with TSLink™ Digital Eye Monitoring has been recognized with a 4.0 rating in the 2026 Lightwave + BTR Innovation Reviews in the Communications Semiconductors and Electrical ICs category. The prestigious program evaluates the most innovative technologies shaping the future of optical networking, data centers, and high-performance computing.
The TS9802 represents a major advancement in linear optical receiver technology, enabling hyperscale data center operators to deploy 200G per lane optical links with the power efficiency of DSP-free architectures while maintaining full link visibility and operational control.
As AI and machine learning infrastructure continues to scale rapidly, operators are transitioning from traditional DSP-based receivers to Linear Pluggable Optics (LPO), Near-Package Optics (NPO), and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) in order to reduce power consumption and latency. However, these architectures historically lacked the diagnostics required to monitor signal integrity and maintain reliable operation.
The TS9802 solves this challenge by integrating TeraSignal’s proprietary TSLink™ Digital Eye Monitoring (DEM) directly into the TIA, restoring real-time visibility into link health without requiring a DSP or external microcontroller.
This intelligent architecture enables operators to monitor eye quality, extract bit-error-rate metrics, and dynamically optimize signal performance while maintaining the power efficiency required for large-scale AI clusters.
“The TS9802 demonstrates how intelligent analog design can transform the deployment of next-generation optical interconnects,” said Dr. Armond Hairapetian, Founder and CEO of TeraSignal. “By integrating TSLink digital eye monitoring directly into the receive path, we enable hyperscalers to deploy 1.6T linear optical links with the visibility, reliability, and operational confidence required for large-scale AI infrastructure.”
The TS9802 Intelligent TIA delivers a combination of high-performance analog amplification, linear equalization and embedded digital diagnostics, enabling reliable deployment of DSP-free optical architectures across hyperscale data centers and high-performance computing environments. Key capabilities include:
