Wide-bandwidth, high-resolution ADC scalable to continuous-time operation

A photonic front-end is used with a commercial digital oscilloscope to create a 2-channel, 7-effective bit, 10-GHz input bandwidth ADC that can be scaled to continuous-time operation by adding commercial components for 10 more channels.
