چکیده
This paper presents the modeling and simulation of a 2x2 optical MEM switch using our system-level, mixed-technology CAD tool, Chatoyant. Simulations include operation in both the “cross” and “bar” states and the mechanical tolerancing of the system.

Dynamic Simulation of Optical MEM Switches
Micro-optical-electrical-mechanical systems (MOEMS) present a new set of challenges for mixed technology systems on a chip (SoC) designers including the need for mixed-signal multi-domain simulation. We present new modeling techniques for optical and mechanical MEM components and apply these models for improved system-level simulation accuracy of MOEMS switches.
متن کاملRobust Lyapunov-based Control of MEMS Optical Switches
In this paper, a robust PID control scheme is proposed for Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems (MEMS) optical switches. The proposed approach is designed in a way which solves two challenging and important problems. The first one is successful reference tracking and the second is mitigating the system nonlinearities. The overall system composed of nonlinear MEMS dynamics and the PID controller is ...

متن کاملDevelopment of Broadband Low-voltage Rf Mem Switches
We present novel RF switches using micro-electromechanical (MEM) technology. These MEM switches are built on GaAs substrates using GaAs MESFET MMICcompatible processes. The fabricated shunt switches showed an insertion loss of less than 0.2dB and an isolation of greater than 20dB up to 40GHz. The switching speed is 47μS. The broadband MEM switches are promising building blocks for wideband circ...
متن کاملNon-Blocking Routers Design Based on West First Routing Algorithm & MZI Switches for Photonic NoC
For the first time, the 4- and 5-port optical routers are designed by using the West First routing algorithm for use in optical network on chip. The use of the WF algorithm has made the designed routers to provide non-blocking routing in photonic network on chip. These routers not only are based on high speed Mach-Zehnder switches(Which have a higher bandwidth and more thermal tolerance than mi...
