Luxtera, a global leader in Silicon CMOS Photonics, today announced its participation in Hot Chips 25, taking place August 25-27 at the Stanford Memorial Auditorium. At the conference Luxtera’s vice president of engineering, Peter De Dobbelaere, will speak on “Silicon Photonics Technology Platform for Integration of Optical IOs with ASICs” during the Interconnects panel held on Monday, August 26, at 5:20 p.m.
The presentation will highlight emerging large scale designs and productization approaches and its impact in supporting high performance computing applications and next generation datacenters.
Luxtera’s Silicon Photonics enable the highest levels of VLSI integration which uniquely solves many of the IO issues that chip designers are facing today. Since 2009, Luxtera has produced Silicon Photonics-based optical transceivers and has begun to deliver on the promises of this disruptive technology. Luxtera is honored to be selected to present at Hot Chips and GFP, where peers from across the universe of semiconductor companies have deemed Luxtera’s presentation as relevant and noteworthy.
