Apparatus and system for providing optical bus interprocessor interconnection

摘要

An exemplary embodiment of the present invention is an apparatus for providing optical interprocessor communication. The apparatus comprises a multichip module and an optical module. The multichip module includes a substrate, an integrated circuit electrically connected to the substrate and a hermetically sealed cover. The hermetically sealed cover encloses a sealed portion of the substrate and the integrated circuit is inside of the sealed cover. The optical module includes an optical transceiver located on the substrate outside of the sealed portion and the optical transceiver is electrically connected to the integrated circuit through the substrate.
