On the photonics roadmap: chip-to-chip and intra-chip interconnects
July 20, 2012 // By Julien Happich
The CEA-LETI annual review that took place late June was an opportunity to catch up with the state-of-the-art in microsystems and microelectronics.
Among the many lectures running in parallel, my bet was that a whole afternoon session on photonics would fill-up my curiosity on the topic. The different presenters all acknowledged that copper alone would not suffice to match the speed and data density required by future generations of consumer devices, with data streams expected in the TeraFLOPS range.

The SoCKIT evaluation kit is Arrow's latest development tool, featuring an Altera Cyclone V SoC with a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processor integrated within its 28nm FPGA fabric.
Altera SoCs allow embedded system developers to differentiate their end product with customized hardware and software, and extend the product lifecycle through hardware and software updates in the field. This month, Arrow Electronics is giving away five SoCKIT evaluation kits featuring Altera’s ARM-Based SoCs, worth €249 each, together with the free entrance to one of Arrow’s SoC workshops organized throughout Europe.
And the winners are...
In our previous reader offer, Freescale Semiconductor was giving away five IMX6Q, Sabre-lite kits, worth £128.06 each.
Lucky winners include Mr. X. Salada Sole from the UK, Mrs A. Peric from Germany, Mr Z. Janosy from Hungary, Mr D. Gacina from Croatia and Mr B. Boris from France. All should be receiving their packages soon. Let's wish them some interesting findings with their projects.
