Abstract

Two integrated circuits which target the development of digital integrated circuits with the capability to interface with optical devices to yield high-speed/high-bandwidth communication are presented. The first, fabricated with Hewlett-Packard's 14B half-micron process as a part of the 1997 Bell Labs/Lucent Technology CMOS-multiple quantum well (MQW) foundry, is a digital signal processing (DSP) core. The second is a prototype design of the multi-threaded programmable DSP engine that will be a part of the 3-D OESP consortium demonstrator system.
