1. A mixed analog and digital chip-scale wavelength selective router, the router comprising:

  • a plurality of optical de-multiplexers couplable to a fiber optic input for separating light into a plurality of wavelengths, the plurality of wavelengths including a first range of wavelengths and a second range of wavelengths;

    a first optical component configured to receive the first range of wavelengths and to programmably separate the first range of wavelengths into a first plurality of channels;

    a second optical component configured to receive the second range of wavelengths and to programmably separate the second range of wavelengths into a second plurality of channels; and

    a plurality of optical multiplexers in optical communication with the first and second optical components.
