A photonic integrated circuit (PIC) chip comprising an array of modulated
sources, each providing a modulated signal output at a channel wavelength
different from the channel wavelength of other modulated sources and a
wavelength selective combiner having an input optically coupled to
received all the signal outputs from the modulated sources and provide a
combined output signal on an output waveguide from the chip. The
modulated sources, combiner and output waveguide are all integrated on
the same chip.
