Abstract

Abstract

For the first time, we demonstrate a novel architecture for a tunable two-tap feed-forward equalizer (FFE) based on a differential element, enabling reduced equalizer size, complexity, and power. This architecture is applicable to optical or electrical domain equalizers, and we demonstrate link equalization.

Abstract

Abstract

We present the theory and realization of a spectrally-partitioned 4x4 crossbar switch, with three microring resonators per cross-point having disjoint resonance regions within a free spectral range. This demonstration of the switch includes a driver. We describe an associated energy efficient, non-blocking wavelength assignment algorithm.
