Patents by Inventor Lisa Anne Buckman

Lisa Anne Buckman has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Method and apparatus for interconnecting a laser array and an integrated circuit of a laser-based transmitter
    Patent number: 7065113
    Abstract: A driver IC and EML array are electrically coupled to one another via a flexible PCB. Thermal isolation between the driver IC and EML array is adjusted by varying a cross-section and length of electrically-conductive traces on the PCB.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 30, 2002
    Date of Patent: June 20, 2006
    Inventors: Mohammed Ershad Ali, Edwin De Groot, Brian Elliot Lemoff, Lisa Anne Buckman
  • Multilevel optical signal generator and method thereof
    Patent number: 7023888
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating multiple levels of optical signals. A plurality of electrical currents is produced. The magnitudes of the electrical currents are independent of each other. Optical signals are produced using the electrical currents. Each optical signal has an amplitude corresponding to one of the multiple levels. The amplitudes of the optical signals corresponding to a level are adjustable by independently adjusting a respective electrical current. Amplitudes of optical signals corresponding to other levels may be adjusted independently.
