Tessera Offers Product Launch Services

Yahoo: Tessera offers Product Launch Services to accelerate the introduction of products that integrate its technology-based solutions, while the supply chain ramps up for high-volume production. The new Services include access to the company’s medium-volume manufacturing facility for both standard and customized lenses.

The first product deployed under Tessera’s Product Launch Services is the OptiML WL-VGA-1E, a single-element VGA lens for cell phone camera modules. The WL-VGA-1E is a reflow compatible, two-surface, lead-free lens designed to work with 2.2µm pixel VGA image sensors. The lens includes an integrated infra-red filter.

Samples of the WL-VGA-1E single-element lens are available for purchase now. Pricing of samples for qualified customers starts at $1/lens for quantities of a few thousand. In early 1Q09, the product will ship in quantities of 100,000 and more.

EETimes adds more about the new service. It is to be based on the wafer fab of Digital Optics Corp. in Charlotte, NC. Tessera acquired Digital Optics in 2006.
