Digital Hardware for a Hybrid Optical/Digital Computer Interface

Abstract

An optical/digital interface for hybrid optical/digital processor has been designed and implimented at the register transfer level. An overall view of the hybrid processor is given followed by a discussion of the processing requirements of the interface. The interface hardware is then presented in depth with a short introduction to the register transfer level of design and associated hardware components. Finally, experimental results achieved with the hybrid processor are included.
