Abstract

The models of different components of the vertical-cavity semiconductor lasers (VCSEL)-based optoelectronic emitter and receiver modules for short-range optical parallel communications were described. Tests were conducted on an original optoelectronic module prototype based on the optical communication high-bit-rate short-range communication standards. The developed models were used as building blocks for the multilevel VHDL-AMS programming. The VHDL-AMS optoelectronic-based models combined the electrical, thermal and optoelectronic effects, with the possibility to switch from behavioral to physical model implememntation depending on the simulation requirements.
