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
