Summary

ATTL driving optical arbiter module which consists of a hybrid combination of optical devices has been fabricated to demonstrate the performance of a parallel data processing arbiter. The optical arbiter module is assembled by a ten-port guided-wave optical arbiter circuit, fiber-connected laser diodes and fiber-connected avalanche photo diodes. Optical arbitration is shown through connecting ten processors to this module. It is confirmed that priority is decided by the connected input terminal position when many processors request common resource use simultaneously. Applying feasibility for parallel signal processing systems is verified by using this prototype optical arbiter module.
