A multi-channel optical plug-in module for gigabit data reception

A plug-in module has been built for reception of optically transmitted data by gigabit applications. The optical receiving module is based on a 12-channel optical receiver and an FPGA with embedded high-speed deserializers. It is compatible with the serializer ASIC used by many LHC systems. Due to i...

Sumario:A plug-in module has been built for reception of optically transmitted data by gigabit applications. The optical receiving module is based on a 12-channel optical receiver and an FPGA with embedded high-speed deserializers. It is compatible with the serializer ASIC used by many LHC systems. Due to its compact design, several of these modules could be plugged into VME readout systems. This module will be the principle element for both the CMS Preshower data concentrator card and the TOTEM front-end driver.
