Avicena, a privately held company headquartered in Sunnyvale, CA, is demonstrating its LightBundleTM multi-Tbps chip-to-chip interconnect technology at the European Conference for Optical Communications (ECOC) 2023 in Glasgow, Scotland ( https://www.ecocexhibition.com/ ).

Key Points: 
  • Avicena, a privately held company headquartered in Sunnyvale, CA, is demonstrating its LightBundleTM multi-Tbps chip-to-chip interconnect technology at the European Conference for Optical Communications (ECOC) 2023 in Glasgow, Scotland ( https://www.ecocexhibition.com/ ).
  • Today, HBM modules must be co-packaged with GPUs because the GPU-memory electrical interconnect is limited to just a few millimeters in length.
  • Conventional optical interconnects based on VCSELs or Silicon Photonics (SiPh) promise to extend the interconnect reach.
  • By contrast, Avicena’s microLED-based LightBundle interconnects provide much lower power and latency, much higher bandwidth density, and can achieve very low costs.
