Abstract:
A Pulse Amplitude Modulated (PAM) optical device utilizing multiple wavelengths, features a communications interface having enhanced diagnostics capability. New registers are created to house additional diagnostic information, such as error rates. The diagnostic information may be stored in raw form, or as processed on-chip utilizing local resources.

Claim (Index 18):
The optical communication module of  claim 17  wherein:\n the electronic data comprises equalizer output data; and \n the second diagnostic information comprises an estimated link slicer signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) produced by, \n slicing the equalizer output data using converged PAM levels and slicer thresholds internally driven by a DSP control loop, \n labeling a discrepancy between the equalizer output and an expected PAM level as an error signal, and \n calculating the estimated link slicer SNR as a ratio between an average level power and an error signal mean square.
