KiboVentures is a Madrid-based Venture Capital firm that invests in early-stage digital companies.
Fabless semiconductor supplier KDPOF provides innovative cost-effective high-speed optical networking for harsh environments.
Fabless semiconductor supplier KDPOF provides innovative cost-effective high-speed optical networking for harsh environments, making gigabit communication over fiber optics a reality. KDPOF technology supplies 1 Gb/s POF links for automotive, industrial, and home networks.
Founded in 2010 in Madrid, Spain, KDPOF offer their technology as either ASIC or IP (Intellectual Property) to be integrated in SoCs (System-on-Chips). The adaptive and efficient system works with a wide range of optoelectronics and low-cost large core optical fibers.
It thus delivers customers low risks, costs and short time-to-market. KDPOF is the overall brand including activities for multi-gigabit connectivity by KDROC (Knowledge Development for Rugged Optical Communications).
KDPOF technology has been selected as the standard of choice within IEEE and ETSI, as our integrated circuits use advanced communications techniques to obtain the best performance from the plastic optical fiber channel.
Among different public recognitions, KDPOF is proud to belong to the exclusive club of Spanish “PYME INNOVADORA” that the Spanish Government provides to the top innovative SME’s in the country.
KDPOF proudly announces the successful completion of the H2020 Project, a considerable EU Research and Innovation program running from 2014 to 2020.
KDPOF’s target was to take the next steps into replicating and validating their Plastic Optical Fiber (POF) technology to implement and standardize a robust solution in the automotive industry after having successfully launched and qualified a family of ASICs for the consumer and professional markets.
KDPOF technology can be tailored to specific applications in order to provide the best trade-off among implementation complexity, achievable performance, and target cost.
That is why we believe in the value of an early collaboration with our partners, from the beginning stages of product development. Not only will this enable an optimum co-design of the different system parts (digital processing, mixed signal front ends, and optoelectronics), this collaboration translates into a high integration level and important reductions of the BOM (Bill of Materials) and costs in the final products.
KDPOF is a proud member of the following groups:
KDPOF has established strategic alliances with leading technology providers around the optoelectronics technology:
