Project: POWERPAM Fully integrated, InP based, 56GBaud PAM4 receiver for Hyperscale Data Center Interconnect

Acronym POWERPAM (Reference Number: 114444)
Duration 31/07/2020 - 31/07/2022
Project Topic POWERPAM will design and develop a multi-channel optical Indium Phosphide, electrical ultrahigh-speed silicon integrated 400Gb/s PAM4 receiver for interconnects in next generation hyperscale datacenters and 5G networks. POWERPAM will limit the power increase in datacenter switches by 50% by replacing metal interconnects with optical interconnects. Using joint intelligent hybrid integration of advanced optical and electrical components, POWERPAM delivers an ultra-fast receiver solution.
