A 25 Gb/s burst-mode receiver for low latency photonic switch networks
Abstract
A DC-coupled burst-mode receiver performs optical power calibration in 12.5ns, achieves phase lock in 18.5ns and tracks input data using a CDR. The sensitivity of the 4.4pJ/bit receiver is -10.9dBm (BER > 10-12) at 25Gb/s.
