文摘A high-speed and high-resolution optical A/D quantizer is proposed.Its architecture is discussed.Bit circuits are built by using the phase modulators in parallel.Based on the different character of the half-wave voltage for every phase modulator and the polarized bias design of incident light,the RF input signal is coled and transmitted in the form of optical digital signal.According to the principle of the architecture,the high-resolution quantizers with 8-bit and 12-bit,et al.are built,which operate at 100 GS/s.Their quantization noise is invariable almost with bit circuits increasing.The simulation result of 4-bit A/D quantizer is also given.
