21 Jan 2004 DenseLight achieves Telcordia qualification and expands Superluminescent LED (SLED) portfolio
  Singapore, 21 January 2004 - DenseLight Semiconductors Private Limited ("DenseLight") announces that her Superluminescent LEDs (SLEDs) have successfully passed Telcordia’s GR-468-CORE, “Reliability Assurance Requirements for Optoelectronics Devices Used in Telecommunications Equipment”. The company has completed the vigorous 7-month testing process that includes mechanical, endurance, 5000-hour accelerated-ageing and ripple-ageing tests. The results validate the inherent reliability of DenseLight’s SLEDs, which are then packaged in industrially established form-factors. In particular, the GR-468-CORE represents a mark of quality in active optoelectronic devices, historically for the telecommunication industry. It is by far the most definitive standard in qualification and characterization of active devices and its intention is to establish a hallmark of reliability under harsh operating conditions.
