Technology Semiconductors

POET Technologies Inc. is a design and development company. It offers high-speed optical engines, light source products and custom optical modules to the artificial intelligence (AI) systems market and to hyperscale data centers. Its photonic integration solutions are based on the POET Optical Interposer, a novel, patented platform that allows the integration of electronic and photonic devices into a single chip using wafer-level semiconductor manufacturing techniques. Its Optical Interposer-based products consume less power than comparable products, are smaller in size and are readily scalable to high production volumes. In addition, it has designed and produced novel light source products for chip-to-chip data communication within and between AI servers, the next frontier for solving bandwidth and latency problems in AI systems. Its Optical Interposer platform solves device integration challenges across a range of communication, computing and sensing applications.

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:year end

I think what gives is they have a few more optimization cycles to go, then they do an alpha test frame work and run the tests, then they build their beta test prototype and run the tests, then they build the engineed transciever prototype and run the tests, then they ship the engineered prototype to potentail customers and they run their tests, then they make the NRE changes the porential customers want, send them back and run the tests, then they sign an agreement to purchase and they start to manufacture the transciever in earnest. That's a lot to get done in 12-15 months.....

the delays in the development of the optical engine was satisfactorily explained with the wafer supply issues. It has been since explained that the epitaxial cycle times have been reduced to matter of weeks. So, how do we square this with the latest statements that the AOC revenues will occur in late 2018. That's potentially a lot of epitaxial growth cycles. What gives?
