A Power-Efficient 2035 GHz MZM Driver with Programmable Linearizer in 28nm CMOS Conference Paper uri icon

abstract

  • A power-efficient CMOS Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) driver operating over wide 20-35GHz frequency range with a programmable linearizer is reported. The proposed linearizer can compensate for AM-AM compression, extending output power 1-dB compression point by 3dB.
