Abstract

An integrated DAC-less PAM-4 transmitter in a multi-micron silicon photonics platform using 2 binary-driven uneven-length SiGe EAMs in an unbalanced MZI is presented. The optical transmitter exhibits 5.5dB ER at 100 Gb/s with 2.1dB SNR improvement compared to single EAMs driven by PAM-4 signals.
