Accelerating Scalable Computing
By Shivi Arora - 02 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

By Shivi Arora and Sue Hung Fung As computing demands for HPC, AI/ML, and cloud infrastructure grow, modular architectures are replacing traditional monolithic System-on-Chip (SoC) designs. These legacy designs are increasingly expensive and difficult to scale due to ever-increasing silicon complexity. In response, the industry is embracing chiplet-based System-in-Package (SiP) solutions,... » read more

Co-Packaged Optics Reaches Power Efficiency Tipping Point
By Laura Peters - 02 Jun, 2025 - Comments: 0

Commercialization has started for network switches based on co-packaged optics (CPO), which are capable of routing signals at terabits per second speeds, but manufacturing challenges remain regarding fiber-to-photonic IC alignment, thermal mitigation, and optical testing strategies. By moving the optical-to-electronic data conversion as close as possible to the GPU/ASIC switch in data center... » read more
