Abstract:
The optoelectronics chip-to-chip interconnect system includes at least one packaged chip connected on the printed-circuit-hoard (PCB) with at least one other packaged chip, opticalelectrical (O-E) conversion means, and waveguide-board. Single to multiple chips can be interconnected using this technique. Packaged chip includes semiconductor die and package based on ball-grid array or chipscale-package. O-E board includes optoelectronics and multiple electrical contacts on both board sides. Waveguide board includes electrodes transferring signals from O-E board to PCB, and the flex optical waveguide, stackable onto the PCB, to guide optical signals chip-to-chip. Electrodes can be connected to the PCB instead of on waveguide hoard. The chip-to-chip interconnection system is pin-free, compatible with the PCB. Advantages are to use the packaged chip for interconnection, while conventional PCB can be used for low speed signal connection, and transmitting part of the heat from the packaged chip to the PCB through conductors, avoiding complex cooling systems.
