Abstract:
One example of a system includes an optical modulator, a push-pull driver, and a compensation circuit. The optical modulator has a nonlinear capacitance. The push-pull driver is electrically coupled across the optical modulator. The push-pull driver charges the capacitance in response to a logic ‘1’ of a level-shifted differential signal and discharges the capacitance in response to a logic ‘0’ of the level-shifted differential signal. The compensation circuit increases the speed of the discharge of the capacitance in response to the level-shifted differential signal transitioning from a logic ‘1’ to a logic ‘0’.

Claim (Index 6):
A system comprising:\n an optical modulator having a nonlinear capacitance; a positive pulse generator to receive a first signal of a level-shifted differential signal to provide a positive pulse in response to the level-shifted differential signal transitioning from a logic \u20181\u2019 to a logic \u20180\u2019; a negative pulse generator to receive a second signal of the level-shifted differential signal complementary to the first signal to provide a negative pulse in response to the level-shifted differential signal transitioning from a logic \u20181\u2019 to a logic \u20180\u2019; a push-pull driver electrically coupled across the optical modulator, the push-pull driver to charge the capacitance in response to a logic \u20181\u2019 of the level-shifted differential signal and discharge the capacitance in response to a logic \u20180\u2019 of the level-shifted differential signal; and a discharge path electrically coupled across the optical modulator, the discharge path activated by the positive pulse and the negative pulse to increase the speed of the discharge of the capacitance.
