METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INTRA-CHIP WAVEGUIDE COMMUNICATION

摘要

Methods and systems for intra-chip waveguide communication are disclosed and may include configuring one or more waveguides in an integrated circuit and communicating one or more signals between blocks within the integrated circuit via the one or more waveguides. The one or more waveguides may be configured via switches in the integrated circuit by adjusting a length of the one or more waveguides. The one or more signals may include a microwave signal and a low frequency control signal that configures the microwave signal. The low frequency control signal may include a digital signal. The one or more waveguides may include metal layers deposited on the integrated circuit or within the integrated circuit. The one or more waveguides may include semiconductor layers deposited on the integrated circuit or embedded within the integrated circuit.
