Objectives

  • To demonstrate electronic retimer ICs on the 28 nm CMOS technology platform, that enables >100 Gb/s and/or >200Gb/s per fiber data transmission, meeting jitter specifications specified in the IEEE 802.3 bs standard (Table 120D-7).

  • To co-package one or more ASICs designed in-house with COTS TOSA/ROSA.

Deliverables

  • Board-level demo using COTS optics and in-house designed ASICs for PAM4 data transmission.

  • Optical testing of the transmit signals viz. eye diagrams, interoperability with a reference receiver. Receiver BER testing using a break-out board, a reference transceiver, and a BERT.

  • Stress testing.
