Optical multiplexer switch tree

The optical switch tree is typically used to route light from one input channel one at a time to multiple possible output channels. As the number of output channels increases, the number of wiring bonding pads increases and the driving electronic device becomes more complex. The optical switch tree includes an optical switch array in an arrangement of a plurality of rows of optical switches each connected by a row bus connected to a first multiplexer and a common power supply and a plurality of columns of optical switches each connected by a column bus connected to a second multiplexer and a common ground line. A control processor selects a column from the plurality of columns of optical switches to be connected to the common ground wire, and selects a row from the plurality of rows of optical switches to be connected to the common power supply, thereby selecting a single optical switch in the optical switch array to be activated. 光开关树通常用于将光从一个输入通道一次一个地路由到多个可能的输出通道。随着输出通道数量的增加，配线接合焊盘的数量增加并且驱动电子设备变得更加复杂。光开关树包括
