Abstract
Programmable logic device is a kind of integrated circuit where different kinds of logic circuits can be designed and reconfigured such as different combinational and arithmetic circuits as per the requirement of the end-users. Optical computing has become an inevitable research area for high-speed operation. In this present communication, we propose an all-optical programmable logic device using optical microring resonator. AND gate can be designed by employing microring resonator based all-optical switch with pump-probe configuration and this methodology is implemented to design a programmable logic device to perform various all-optical arithmetic and logical functions. The proposed circuit is analyzed at a speed of 200 Gbps which is validated through the numerical simulation. Parameters for this design are selected in an optimized manner so that the proposed design can be implemented practically for optical computing.
