Abstract
This paper addresses skew and latency issues in large receiver arrays intended for use in optoelectronic-VLSI (OE-VLSI). Existing receiver designs display high sensitivity to variations in input average photocurrent arising from non-uniformities across the array. Modifications to existing receiver designs are proposed which reduce this sensitivity, and a novel experimental approach using an optical ring oscillator (ORO) to characterize receiver latency is presented, with results compared to simulation.
