Abstract: The technology generally relates to high bandwidth memory (HBM) and optical connectivity stacking. Disclosed systems and methods herein allow for 3D-stacking of HBM dies that are interconnected with an optical interface in a manner that allows for compact, high-performance computing. An optical chiplet can be configured to be placed onto a stack of HBM dies, with a cooling die that is positioned between the HBM dies and the optical chiplet. The optical chiplet may be configured to connect the HBM optics module package to one or more other components of the package via to one or more optical fibers.

Abstract: The technology generally relates to disaggregating memory from an application specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”) package. For example, a high-bandwidth memory (“HBM”) optics module package may be connected to an ASIC package via one or more optical links. The HBM optics module package may include HBM dies(s), HBM chiplet(s) and an optical chiplet. The optical chiplet may be configured to connect the HBM optics module to one or more optical fibers that form an optical link with one or more other components of the ASIC package. By including an optical chiplet in the HBM optics module package, the HBM optics module package may be disaggregated from an ASIC package.
