Abstract

In almost all modern communication and sensing systems analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters (ADCs, DACs) are used and their performance parameters like bandwidth and resolution are critical for the overall system performance. Nowadays the resolution of the best broadband ADCs and DACs is fundamentally limited by the clock jitter of the electronic sampling clock. Mode-locked lasers have demonstrated exceptionally low timing jitter for the envelope of the optical pulse train which can be orders of magnitudes lower than the jitter of electronic clocks. This has motivated research into electronic-photonic ADC and DAC concepts. The talk will describe conventional and novel electronic-photonic ADC and DAC concepts as well as implementations of core circuit blocks in silicon photonics technology.
