Benefits
of the Smart Skin Array Technology
A
Scalable Data Link
The
Benefits of SSAT in Active Interconnects
- A
robust, flexible data link that is less expensive to manufacture
- Density variability with
2 to 150 optical channels
- Width
as a function of density
- Fiber
type variability within a cable or cable type
- Bandwidth,
spacing, and thickness variability, which are easily modified
- An
easily repairable - fault location simple optical link
- A
LOW SKEW optical pathway for high speed
systems
The
Benefits of SSAT in Passive Interconnects
- An
array-based optoelectronic device, scalable such that the system is
transparent to its optical transmission medium
- A
scalable parallelism in the optical link that enables maximum throughput
- A
potentially scalable, active, interconnect device with topological
approach which allows, on a device by device basis, array redundancy
and control of such redundancy on an individual basis
- A
scalable form factor which can be modified to reflect variation in
the density of the link itself and the related scalability of the
optics
- A
LOW SKEW low latency interconnect for
high speed optoelectronic systems with effectively zero change due
to twisting
- A
packaging solution which enables maximum use of Vertical Semiconductor
Emitting Lasers (VSCELs)
- The
resultant economy of scale that a single easily modifiable packaging
and manufacturing technique can generate
- The
resultant economy of scale for such scalable device techniques that
enable a low cost solution for moderate high speed systems, and a
lower cost solution for higher speed systems that are available today
