Abstract :
A scalable frame-synchronisation circuit is proposed for highly parallel high-speed optical interconnections. Its scalable architecture enables the number of channels to be increased without any decrease in the transmission rate. In HSPICE circuit simulations, a circuit using 0.2 μm CMOS technology compensated for a skew in 622 Mbit/s input data
