Abstract :
We report the attempt of 6 bit operation of optical quantization for photonic A/D conversion. Efficient optical quantization and optical coding in a bit-parallel format make it possible that provides 6 bit optical codes from 32 optical quantized pulses. The cascade operation of optical quantization and coding with 6 bit resolution was tested in our experimental setup.
