    • A method and an apparatus for providing an optical clock distribution network. In one embodiment, an optical source is configured to emit optical pulses at a desired clock frequency. The optical pulses are separated into a plurality of split optical pulses, each of which is received by a clock receiver node in a semiconductor die. In one embodiment, each clock receiver node locally generates a photocurrent in response to the split optical beams. Each of the photocurrents is locally converted into voltage and thus into local clock signals, which are used to clock the local area of the integrated circuit. In one embodiment, the semiconductor die includes an additional clock receiver node used to clock a clock generation circuit included in the semiconductor die. The clock generation circuit generates clock signals that are in phase with each other and the other clock signals generated throughout the semiconductor die. In one embodiment, the clock signals generated by the clock generation circuit are used to clock and phase lock input/output communications on the semiconductor die as well as off chip input/output communications between the semiconductor die and other external semiconductor dice of the system.

In operation, a light beam is directed through the back side semiconductor substrate onto an optical modulator. The optical modulator modulates and deflects the light beam. The deflected light beam is routed to a deflector that directs the modulated and deflected light beam through the back side semiconductor substrate onto an optical demodulator.

    • A method and an apparatus for synchronizing a mode locked laser with a device under test. The present invention provides a stroboscopic technique that synchronizes the free running laser pulses of a mode locked laser to a DUT enabling the optical testing of integrated circuits to be performed and waveform measurements to be acquired from a DUT at random operating frequencies. In one embodiment, a laser synchronizing apparatus is configured to be used to test a device under test . The laser synchronizing apparatus includes a mode locked laser generating repeating laser pulses having a first period. A test pattern operating in M clocks when executed on the device under test is constructed. M is an integer and each one of the M clocks has a second period. A time per test pattern is computed such that the time per test pattern provides a sufficient amount of time to execute the constructed test pattern operating in the M clocks. The time per test pattern is a common multiple of the first period and the second period such that N laser pulses are generated during the time per test pattern with N being an integer. The test pattern is looped on the device under test with the laser synchronizing apparatus synchronized with the mode locked laser and each loop of the test pattern taking the time per test pattern to execute.
