報(bào)告簡介
近年來,關(guān)于集成電路(IC)制造的傳統(tǒng)架構(gòu)和材料方面的假設(shè)受到挑戰(zhàn),半導(dǎo)體行業(yè)則正在尋找新的解決方案。此外,半導(dǎo)體行業(yè)的能源和散熱問題使得這一危機(jī)更加凸顯。
其中最重要的問題之一就是所謂的“互連瓶頸”,即On-Chip和Chip-to-Chip都會(huì)同時(shí)出現(xiàn)的數(shù)據(jù)流量堵塞趨勢。互連瓶頸在摩爾定律完全失去動(dòng)力的很久以前就已經(jīng)出現(xiàn),它現(xiàn)在是以不同的形式重新出現(xiàn)在為使芯片封裝更容易的新的架構(gòu)中。
“明顯的”解決方案是采用光學(xué)這一解決帶寬問題常用的方式。但是針對On-Chip和Chip-to-Chip互連的光學(xué)解決方案在商用產(chǎn)品的開發(fā)方面比較困難。生產(chǎn)能被用在芯片層級(jí)的足夠小和低廉的光子器件是一個(gè)很大的難題。
在這份報(bào)告中,CIR分析了光互連在芯片層級(jí)的最新發(fā)展以及世界各地的重要研究小組在這個(gè)領(lǐng)域取得的進(jìn)展。報(bào)告同時(shí)討論了研發(fā)和商用方面的進(jìn)展。該報(bào)告從傳統(tǒng)CPU芯片以及最新架構(gòu)的角度來看待這個(gè)問題,同時(shí)還分析了相對于金屬互連和未來可能出現(xiàn)的其它比光子更奇特的替代解決方案(尤其是碳納米管)而言,光互連所存在的發(fā)展機(jī)遇。
報(bào)告里面還包括了未來十年的演進(jìn)路線圖。該路線圖展示了芯片層級(jí)光互連商業(yè)機(jī)會(huì)的出現(xiàn)時(shí)機(jī)、應(yīng)用領(lǐng)域及其市場規(guī)模。CIR還分析了領(lǐng)導(dǎo)廠商及其在設(shè)計(jì)和實(shí)施On-Chip & Chip-to-Chip光互連方面的研究工作。
