  • Publication number: 20210385560
    Abstract: A co-packaged optical-electrical module includes a module substrate with a minimum lateral dimension no greater than 100 mm. The co-packaged optical-electrical module further includes a main die with a processor chip disposed at a central region of the module substrate, the processor chip being configured to operate with a digital-signal processing (DSP) interface for extra-short-reach data interconnect. Additionally, the co-packaged optical-electrical module includes a plurality of chiplet dies disposed densely along a peripheral region of the module substrate. Each chiplet die is configured to be self-packaged light engine on a sub-module substrate with a minimum lateral dimension to allow a maximum number of chiplet dies on the module substrate with a distance of any chiplet die from the main die smaller than 50 mm for extra-short-reach interconnect operation.

  • Patent number: 11109515
    Abstract: An integrated heatsink for a co-packaged optical-electrical module includes a base plate attached on top of a co-packaged optical-electrical module. The integrated heatsink further includes a plurality of fin structures extended upward from the base plate except a central cavity region with missing sections of fins, each fin extended along an axial direction from a front edge to a back edge of the base plate except some trenches shallow in depth across some fin structures and some other trenches deep in depth down to the base plate either along or across some fin structures. Additionally, the integrated heatsink includes multiple heat pipes including shaped portions embedded in the trenches in the plurality of fin structures. At least one bottom horizontal portion per heat pipe is brazed to the base plate in a corresponding region that is superimposed on hot spots of the co-packaged optical-electrical module under the base plate.
