Ultrahigh-speed ICs for a 100 Gbps transceiver demonstrator system

Övrigt konferensbidrag, 2005

We report on advances in the OptCom-project within the fields of ultra high-speed electronics and assembly technology. We highlight how we work towards our goal: a 100 Gbps transceiver demonstrator. Results of today include ICs from several generations of development. Our current best result is an IC operating at record-breaking 165 Gbps (serial bit stream). We will also outline our future activities towards more complex IC design, including electrical pseudo-random bit sequence generation and error detection at very high speed.
