NyPhE - Nyquist Silicon Photonics Engine

Exponentially growing data traffic around the world leads to increasing demand for high speed server communication in data centers. Future communication systems have to reach data rates well beyond 100 Gbits/s and low power dissipation is becoming an increasingly important characteristic. Therefore, novel transceiver concepts are required to enable ...

SPP 2111 - Ultra-Wideband Photonically Assisted Analog-to-Digital Converters (PACE) - Phase 2

Silicon-based analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), which operate at sampling rates in the double-digit GSa/s range, are state of the art today. Although these converters now operate at unprecedented sampling rates, the effective number of bits (ENOB) and analog bandwidth are improving only slowly. A major obstacle to further improvements in ...

SPP 2111 - PONyDAC II - Precise Optical Nyquist Pulse Synthesizer DAC

Fast digital-to-analog converters (DAC) are indispensable components for modern signal processing systems. Bandwidth and effective number of bits (ENOB) are important metrics for the performance of DACs. At the same time, those parameters constitute a trade-off in the design of a DAC: The more broadband the DAC, the less typically the ENOB. This is ...

Automotive VLC - Open Hardware Project Visible Light Communication (1st project phase)

Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) are becoming more and more the primary source of illumination in different indoor and outdoor environments. Besides their illumination function, their ability for fast switching enables a new kind of application, namely Visible Light Communication (VLC). VLC uses the multi-THz wide, license free visible light bands of ...
