Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of integrated circuit design, and particularly relates to a driving method and a driving system of a large-scale thermally modulated phase shifter.
Background
Moore's law will move towards the end as semiconductor process nodes gradually approach physical size limits. Integrated photons have received extensive research and attention as a potential path of development in the aftermolarity era. For the current on-chip integrated optical devices or systems, thermal phase shifters have been widely studied and used as efficient, low loss phase shifters. It not only helps to achieve flexible tuning of the integrated photonic system: for example, in optical artificial intelligence, the optical transmission matrix of the photonic device can be adjusted by adjusting the phase shift of the thermally-modulated phase shifter, so that efficient calculation is facilitated; in a silicon-based optical phased array, a thermal phase shifter is generally used to adjust the phase difference between multiple output beams to achieve a beam scanning effect. Meanwhile, the method can also be used for compensating the defects of disturbance or process deviation caused by environmental factors such as temperature and the like, so that the photonic device works in the optimal state: for example, for a silicon-based mach-zehnder modulator, the thermally tuned phase shifter on the modulation arm needs to be adjusted to compensate for process variations and to keep the operating state of the modulator unaffected by external environmental factors such as temperature variations; for microring resonators, the thermally tuned phase shifter within the ring needs to be tuned to stabilize its resonant frequency.
For most thermal phase shifters, the amount of phase shift is changed by varying the electrical power applied to them. The output power is efficiently and linearly regulated through the electric drive, so that the accurate and linear regulation of the phase shift is realized. The current common driving scheme is to drive the heat regulator by using a power tube controlled by a digital Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) signal, and the principle is as follows: when the frequency of the digital PWM signal is much larger than the thermal phase shifter bandwidth, the average output power of the power tube is proportional to the duty ratio of the digital PWM signal. The duty ratio of the digital PWM signal is adjusted through the digital control signal, and the phase shift quantity of the thermal phase shifter can be adjusted. The scheme generally comprises two parts, namely a controlled power tube for providing large-amplitude output power, and a digital PWM signal generation module which is controlled by a digital control signal and generates a digital PWM signal with a corresponding duty ratio for realizing linear regulation of the output power. In the above-described embodiments, the digital PWM signal generation module is generally configured by a digital circuit, and a counter is used to count high-speed clock signal pulses from zero, and the output of the counter is compared with the digital control signal by a digital comparator, and when the output of the counter is equal to the digital control signal, the output of the comparator is inverted, the output of the comparator is the generated digital PWM signal, and the magnitude of the duty ratio is determined by the digital control signal.
In the document "n.zeceic, m.hofbauer and h.zimmermann," Integrated Pulse width Modulation Control for a Scalable Optical Switch Matrix, "in IEEE Photonics Journal, vol.7, No.6, pp.1-7, dec.2015", a plurality of thermal modulators in an Optical Switch array are driven by a digital PWM signal, the high-speed PWM signals are generated by a high-speed counter, a comparator, and a D flip-flop, and each thermal modulator needs a separate digital PWM signal generator for converting a digital Control signal into a digital PWM signal for driving the power tube.
The above method has the disadvantages that each thermal modulator needs a separate digital PWM signal generation module, and in a large-scale silicon-based photonic array, a large amount of hardware resources are undoubtedly consumed, and at the same time, extremely high power consumption is generated, which is not favorable for low-cost commercial application.
