A 197mW 70ms-latency Full-HD 12-channel video-processing SoC for in-vehicle information systems has been implemented in 16nm CMOS. The SoC integrates 17 video processors of 6 types to operate video processing independently of other processing in CPU/GPU. The synchronous scheme between the video processors achieves 70ms low-latency for driver assistance. The optimized implementation of lossy and lossless video-data compression reduces memory access data by half and power consumption by 20%.

The design aspects of the bulk InGaAsP semiconductor optical amplifier integrated Mach-Zehnder interferometer (SOA-MZI) optimized for 40 Gbps-NRZ all optical wavelength conversion are described. The dimensions of the SOA active waveguide have been optimized for fast gain recovery by maximizing the gain and adjusting the wavelength-converted NRZ waveforms. Submicron-width buried heterostructure (BH) SOA waveguides were fabricated successfully and showed little leakage current. The experimental wavelength-converted optical waveform agreed well to the numerical simulations, and mask-compliant 40 G-NRZ wavelength-converted waveform was obtained by the optimized SOA-MZI. 40 G-NRZ full C-band operation and polarization-insensitive operation of SOA-MZI were also achieved.
