Grounding quotes
  • “We are pleased to report design and activity for our newly announced Direct Edge platform of TIAs and laser drivers, enabling 800 gig linear pluggable optics or LPO modules. We demonstrated these products at the Optical Fiber Communication Conference this week with favorable market feedback, and we expect to begin shipping these products at the end of FY '25.”
  • “We are also pleased with our engagements to support XGS-PON deployments in North America. And though we are still in early innings, we expect demand trends requiring higher and higher speed access to the cloud will result in long-term market opportunities for Semtech in North America and EMEA.”
  • “We believe time to meaningful recovery in this market will be extended.”
  • “Module and customer inventories and many applications remained elevated, though visibility remains limited.”
