2‐Gb/s all‐optical serial digital‐to‐analog converter

A fiber-optic combined serial-to-parallel and digital-to-analog converter is proposed and demonstrated. The system is based on bit interleaving and cross-gain modulation in a semiconductor optical amplifier. The demonstrated 3-bit digital converter operates at 2 Gb/s, however, the proposed architecture could be easily modified to operate at higher bit-rates. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
