25Gb/s hybrid-integrated silicon photonic receiver with microring wavelength stabilization

A 25Gb/s hybrid-integrated microring receiver which includes a thermal tuning loop that stabilizes the drop filter resonance wavelength is implemented. The multi-channel 65nm CMOS source-synchronous receiver achieves -8.2 dBm sensitivity at BER <;10
^-12
and 0.68pJ/b.
