  • Abstract
    Large-scale routers, supercomputers and datacenters all have internal networks for chip-to-chip communications with bandwidth, density, and power requirements that can surpass the capabilities of copper solutions. We review current state-of-the-art technologies, such as Avago´s MicroPOD parallel optical modules.
