Abstract:
Monolithically integrated Si depletion-type transmitters in 0.25 µm photonic BiCMOS platform with different driving approaches are discussed. A power efficient implementation featuring integrated 4-bit DAC functionality is presented, from which PAM-4 eye diagrams up to 40 Gb/s are demonstrated.
