High-bandwidth optical MCM: FPGA with optical I/O on waveguide-integrated SLC

摘要

Chip-level optical packaging on a waveguide-integrated surface laminar circuit (SLC) provides a promising solution for high-density and low-power I/O in future high-performance computing systems. We developed and demonstrated a high performance optical multi-chip module which consists of an FPGA with 12-channel optical I/O on a waveguide-integrated SLC that operates at data rate over 6 Gb/s per channel.
