Suresh appears determined to achieve his "Holy Grail" of on-chip optics. There are hints of it for the first time associated with the optical interposer.
As the need for higher data transfer speeds at greater baud rates and lower power levels increase, optics will move increasingly closer to the source of the data, whether it be a processor, application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) or field programmable gate array (FPGA). Poet's Optical interposer platform enables an optoelectronic interconnect fabric to interface directly with the source of data to support high-speed optical data transfer from within the multichip module (MCM)
