    PAM4 Pakistan Telecom-Grade Router

    PAM4 is a modulation scheme that combines two bits into a single symbol with four amplitude levels as shown in Fig. This effectively doubles a network's data rate, enabling 400G/800G short-haul transmission. PAM4 is a branch of the pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) technology, which is a mainstream signal transmission technology following non-return-to-zero (NRZ). But to understand why it has become ubiquitous in serial data standards, you first must understand the market forces driving the data networking industry.

    Electric Pulse High Beam Module

    This paper presents a novel high-voltage pulse power generator utilizing a distributed pulser architecture. It combines gallium nitride (GaN) transistors in a Marx topology with an inductive adder, achieving nanosecond-scale switching speeds and high-power efficiency. This article is a revised and expanded version of a paper entitled “A 50 KV Pulse Generator for Fast Kickers”, which was presented at the 15th International Particle Accelerator Conference (IPAC24), Nashville, TN, USA, 19–24 May 2024. Beam injection systems in hadron colliders require kickers. As a core part, the performance of a high-current electron beam source is inevitably essential for high-power sources and accelerators. The substantial increase in UHDR beam current poses serious challenges for conventional active dosimeters.

  • Advantages and disadvantages of silicon photonic modulation technology

    Advantages and disadvantages of silicon photonic modulation technology

    Discover how silicon photonics enables high-speed, energy-efficient optical communication by integrating photonics and silicon electronics—applications, advantages, and challenges. Silicon photonics (SiPh) is an advanced technology that merges silicon-based semiconductor manufacturing with photonic components for data transmission, processing, and sensing. This enables high-speed, low-power, and low-cost optical modulators, which are essential for optical interconnects in data centers. Optical links are moving to higher and higher transmission speeds while shrinking to shorter and shorter ranges where optical links are envisaged even at the chip scale. Traditional electronic data transmission through copper wires increasingly feels like rush-hour traffic, hitting bandwidth. In silicon photonics, modulators are crucial components that enable the manipulation of light signals, typically through the plasma dispersion effect, where free-carrier density changes alter the refractive index.
