IPtronics cooperate with NEC on tiny optical module
IPtronics enables low power modules
NEC Corp. and IPtronics A/S cooperate on high speed chip design for a tiny photoelectric converter announced by NEC Corp. (See Nikkei Business
Daily 1. June 2005). The photoelectric converter, smaller than a 1 yen coin, enables integration of optical connections between chips on circuit boards instead of the copper wires used today.
The use of optical connections between chips and circuit boards in routers, computers, storages, etc. will facilitate the migration to systems that can handle terabit-level data transmission speeds.
The high speed chip set from IPtronics A/S is developed for the production version of the photoelectric converter realizing higher performance characteristics and lower cost.
The Japan Electronics Packaging and Circuits Association intend to promote NEC's photoelectric converter as the industrial standard and ultimately aims to make it a global interconnect standard.
