Abstract

A hybrid electrical and optic system-on-chip (SOC) device configured for both electrical and optic communication includes a substrate, an electrical device configured for electrical communication arranged on the substrate, a photonics device configured for optic communication arranged on the substrate, and a self-test module arranged on the substrate. The self-test module is configured to receive a loop-back signal indicative of an optical signal output from the photonics device and calibrate the photonics device based on the loop-back signal.
