- 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.
