Abstract

An 80 Gbit/s ATM-switch multi-chip module (MCM) has been developed that uses only an optical I/O interface for high-speed signal interconnection. The MCM was fabricated using 0.25 µm CMOS/SIMOX technology, 622 Mbit/s/channel 40 channel/module parallel-optical-interconnection technology, and high-performance cooling technology. Its small size (220 × 174 × 15 mm) will enable 80 Gbit/s optical ATM cell switching.
