Popis: This paper gives a detailed description of a >1.3-Tb/s VCSEL-based on-board parallel-optical transceiver module for high-density optical interconnects. The optical module integrates a 28-Gb/s × 24-channel transmitter and receiver into one package with a 1-in2 footprint, thereby yielding a data rate density as high as 1.34 Tb/s/in2. A unique module design is developed to utilize the whole top surface for thermal dissipation and the bottom surface for optical and electrical interfaces. The heat dissipation characteristics are studied in simulations and experiments. A test system of 24-channel optical loop-back link is built to evaluate the performance when operating all 24 channels by 28.05-Gb/s 231–1 PRBS bit streams simultaneously. With a total power consumption of 9.1 W, the optical module can be operated within the operating case temperature under a practical air cooling condition. When operating all 24 channels simultaneously, a total jitter margin at BER of 10–12 is larger than 0.4 U.I. at a monitor channel. The measured jitter margin is consistent regardless of any channel operation.
