Abstract
ISE TCAD (Integrated System Engineering Technology Computer Aided Design) software simulation program has been coupled with popular MATLAB program as a new idea to help analyses the small signal of pulse response for digital modulation purposes. ISE TCAD software simulation program has been employed to build a laser structure and extract its output to select the desired operating points from the output. While, MATLAB has been utilized to create the state-space model which has been applied to Jacobian matrix of the rate equations of laser diode (LD). And the pulse response for digital modulation has been studied through the state-space model itself..
