Does the optical module use a DSP chip
In optical modules, the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) chip serves as the core electronic processor, integrating high-speed digital signal processing, forward error correction (FEC), equalization compensation, and modulation/demodulation. The digital signal processor (DSP) is the electronic heart of coherent transmission systems. The Marvell coherent DSP portfolio, including Orion™, Canopus™ and Deneb™ platforms, empower the optical module ecosystem with low-power, high-performance silicon for QSFP-DD, OSFP and CFP2-DCO coherent pluggable form factors for AI cloud data center interconnect and 5G telecom and long-haul. However, as data rates soar beyond 100G, 400G, and now 800G, simply converting signals isn't enough.
