A low-cost, high-performance 40 Gb/s clock recovery module using a phase-locked loop(PLL) for a 40 Gb/s optical receiver has been designed and implemented. It consists of a clock recovery circuit, a RF mixer and frequency discriminator for phase/frequency detection, a DR-VCO, a phase shifter, and a hold circuit. The recovered 40 GHz clock is synchronized with a stable 10 GHz DR-VCO. The clock stability and jitter characteristics of the implemented PLL-based clock recovery module has shown to significantly improve the performance of the conventional open-loop type clock recovery module with DR filter. The measured peak-to-peak RMS jitter is about 230 fs. When input signal is dropped, the 40 GHz clock is generated continuously by hold circuit. The implemented clock recovery module can be used as a low-cost and high-performance receiver module for 40 Gb/s commercial optical network.

A 40 Gb/s clock and data recovery (CDR) module for a fiber-optic receiver with improved phase-locked loop (PLL) circuits has been successfully implemented. The PLL of the CDR module employs an improved D-type flip-flop frequency acquisition circuit, which helps to stabilize the CDR performance, to obtain faster frequency acquisition, and to reduce the time of recovering the lock state in the event of losing the lock state. The measured RMS jitter of the clock signal recovered from 40 Gb/s pseudo-random binary sequence ($2^{31}-1$) data by the improved PLL clock recovery module is 210 fs. The CDR module also integrates a 40 Gb/s D-FF decision circuit, demonstrating that it can produce clean retimed data using the recovered clock.

This paper describes the design and fabrication of synchronous clock recovery module for S-DMB Gap Filler. Using the 2.304MHz TTL signal from gap filler tuner, clock recovery module with 10MHz output frequency including holdover function is designed. The measured performance of the clock recovery module shows a stability of less than 0.01ppm, 29 sec stability time, 10 sec holdover time, and maximum -113dBc/Hz@100Hz phase noise.

A low-cost, high-performance 40 Gb/s clock recovery module using a phase-locked loop(PLL) for a 40 Gb/s optical receiver with the clock-hold function has been designed and implemented. It consists of a clock extractor circuit, an RF mixer and a frequency discriminator for phase/frequency detection, a VC-DRO, a phase shifter, and a clock-hold circuit. The extracted 40 GHz clock is synchronized with a stable 10 GHz VC-DRO. The clock stability and jitter characteristics of the implemented PLL-based clock recovery module are significantly improved as compared with those of the conventional open-loop type clock recovery module with a DR filter. The measured peak-to-peak RMS jitter is about 230 fs. When an input signal is dropped, the 40 GHz clock is maintained continuously by the hold circuit.

The clock recovery module of gap filler for satellite DMB is proposed. Proposed module sustains the output frequency of 10 MHz whether the received signal from the satellite is unstable or cut off within 0.5 sec. The advantages of this module is without frequency tuning at regular interval and low material cost. This module is fabricated by using CPLD as clock recovery IC and new type of loop filter for satisfying the fast lock time and long hold over time simultaneously. The measured performance of the fabricated module has a holdover time of 11 sec at frequency stability less than 0.01 ppm, and phase noise of -113 dBc/Hz at 100 Hz offset.

This paper proposes an open-loop clock recovery circuit (CRC) using two high-Q dielectric resonator (DR) filters for 39.8 Gb/s and 42.8 Gb/s dual-mode operation. The DR filters are fabricated to obtain high Q-values of approximately 950 at the 40 GHz band and to suppress spurious resonant modes up to 45 GHz. The CRC is implemented in a compact module by integrating the DR filters with other circuits in the CRC. The peak-to-peak and RMS jitter values of the clock signals recovered from 39.8 Gb/s and 42.8 Gb/s pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS) data with a word length of $2^{31}-1$ are less than 2.0 ps and 0.3 ps, respectively. The peak-to-peak amplitudes of the recovered clocks are quite stable and within the range of 2.5 V to 2.7 V, even when the input data signals vary from 150 mV to 500 mV. Error-free operation of the 40 Gb/s-class optical receiver with the dual-mode CRC is confirmed at both 39.8 Gb/s and 42.8 Gb/s data rates.

Recently, the development of passive optical networks (PON) for FTTH (Fiber-To-The-Home) have been actively conducted. In PON, a burst-mode transceiver is one of key modules. In this paper, we have made the protype module of a 155.52 Mpbs optical burst-mode transceiver with commercially available chips and then have measured the performance. Also, a new method of burst-mode clock recovery have been proposed. The burst-mode clock recovery implemented by using CPLD(Complex Programmable Logic Device) has coupled with the above burst-mode transceiver and has been tasted.

We have extracted an optical clock signal from a return-to-zero(RZ) pseudorandom bit sequence(PRBS) and non-return-to-zero(NRZ) PRBS data in a pulsation multi-section laser diode with DFB reflector. The ms timing jitter achieved less than 1 ps for the input 11.727 Gbit/s RZ PRBS and NRZ PRBS data. The PRE data wasconverted from the NRZ data using an NRZ to pseudo-return to zero(PRZ) converter module. The optical clock was extracted from the PRZ data which contains the clock components. Although the input PRZ data gives a timing jitter of 2 ps, the extracted clock has timing jitter of ${\~}$1 ps.

All-optical fiber-type $2{\times}32$ splitters for an Ethernet PON (passive optical network) were fabricated by using a FBT (fiber biconical tapered) process and the performance of the splitters was tested in upstream transmission of the EPON system. The $2{\times}32$ splitters was obtained by cascading $1{\times}4$ splitters fabricated by a conventional FBT process and showed -18 dB of insertion loss with 1.5 dB uniformity of output power at each channel and -0.1 dB of polarization dependent loss. The insertion loss variation was below 0.1 dB at the temperature range of $-40^{\circ}C\;to\;80^{\circ}C$. For upstream channel transmission test in the EPON system were a Zig board and a burst mode receiver. Zenko-made optical module was used for the burst mode receiver by adding functions of serializer/deserializer and clock data recovery, a Virtex II pro20 chipset and Vitesse VSC7123 were used in the Zig board for characterizing the burst mode and in the clock data recovery chipset, respectively. Startup acquisition lock time and data acquisition lock time were measured to be 670ns and 400ns, respectively, in the upstream channel transmission of the EPON system adapting the $2{\times}32$ splitter fabricated in this work.
