Aeluros Inc is a semiconductor company developing integrated circuits for wireline communications - for Ethernet operating at 10 Gigabits per second. The company was founded in 2001 [1], and produces physical layer ICs used in 10GE line cards and optical modules (such as XENPAK, SFP, XFP).
The company is the first to produce a XAUI transceiver dissipating less than 1 Watt of power, [2] [3] a transceiver that can drive directly a 10 Gbit/s VCSEL, [4] and a transceiver with integrated Electronic Dispersion Compensation for 10GE using Multi-mode optical fiber. [5]
The company was acquired by NetLogic Microsystems in October 2007 in a deal exceeding $70M.[6]
