Research of 800Gbit/s OSFP DR8 Silicon Photonics Optical Transceiver Module

In today’s era of rapid technological development, cutting-edge technologies such as cloud computing and artificial intelligence are continuously advancing. As a critical component of data transmission, the optical communication industry has entered a stage of comprehensive and rapid growth. To effectively meet the demands of modern data center systems for high-speed data transmission, this paper proposes a design for an 800 Gbit/s silicon photonic transceiver module. First, the paper explains the working principles and components of the 800 Gbit/s silicon photonic transceiver module. The four key components of the module—transmission, reception, control, and digital signal processing—are introduced and analyzed. Through performance testing of the module’s transmission and reception capabilities, it is verified that the proposed design meets the required performance specifications. This work provides a practical 800 Gbit/s solution for Ethernet transmission in data centers.
